Today, my mum bought me Pokemon Diamond from Game.
However, after spending 4 hours playing it, I have decided it was not the right game for me.
Is it possible to return the game back to Game, for a full refund?

It's already opened and played.

If not, what can I do?

Probably, just say it was a unwanted gift, and as for it being opened your baby cousin started opening it? :)

Yeah, just put it back in the box and take it back with the reciept (sp?) and just say you want to return it.

How am I going to explain that I opened it...and what's the reason for the return

Supposed to be a birthday present but I really dont want it now, and dont want it to be my birthday present.

Why did you play it for 4 hours anyway?

You should be able to return it because you changed your mind, as they often give you 7 days "decision time". If you want to be sure just call them and ask.

Lol I am. But if I'm not going to play it, then there's no use for it...and I'd rather my mum get her £30 back than just let the game rot in my draw lol..

say it freezes after 3+ hours, if you delete your play file then they cant check and they cant check a ds cartridge for a scratch like they can on cd and they wont play it for three hours to test will they

this is cheating but you could scratch the disk and then say it was like that when you opened it.

unless there is some type of fault with it GAME won't let you return it - i tried too before, but because packaging was open/not sealed they wouldn't let me :(

Wouldn't recommend damaging it..
See what you can get for credit. No doubt you'll lose money though..

I think they usually only let you return it if it's faulty?

If you claim it's faulty they'll just give you a new one. You can't really win. The best you'll get is store credit if anything at all.

They don't let you which is why I always goto Gamestation as they give you 7 days to take it back even if you think its rubbish.
