It's one thing to complain about the video game industry's treatment of DLC on the internet, but gamer James Collins is taking action. He's taking a stand! James Collins is mad as hell, and he's not going to take it any more! Well, he filed a lawsuit, anyway.
Collins says he bought a used copy of Dragon Age: Origins from a GameStop. The box clearly indicated that free content could be downloaded for the game, but it couldn't. Whoever sold the game to GameStop obviously used the redeem code for the free DLC, leaving Collins holding the bag.

He paid $54.99 for the used game, but would have to pay $15 for the DLC. That adds up to a used version of the game costing ten bucks more than a brand new one. GameStop wouldn't refund his money, so Collins is suing GameStop. Check out the full suit here.
The class-action lawsuit seeks to prevent GameStop from selling used games with text on the cover promising DLC that doesn't exist.

The only problem, as I see it, is that I think that copy on boxes already says that the code is a one-time-use thing, and the suit even seems to acknowledge that the the box contains fine print that reads, "One-time use code; available with full retail purchase, Expires April 30, 2010." So this might be a case of letting the buyer beware.

ROFL thats true.

Same with the other lady that sued when she spilled coffee on herself because the lid didn't say hot on it

I hope game makes a mistake like this I will get a free ps3 lol

made me lol

I thought in the case with the 2 fats girls vs McDonalds, the case was dismissed.

good for him

i found this quite amusing lol. suing gamestop for $15. lmfao

Why should GameStop get sued over him not thinking before buying?

What kind of dumbass pays $54.99 for a used game if they can get a brand new one for $59.99? Dude has no brain in his head and should stop playing video games and get a life.

This really makes me laugh! What a tard
