They send you a form and envelope, you send in the disc and they send the correct one back. It is annoying, but they do it so people don't try to scam their way into a free disc. But, fortunately, every single time I have participated in something like this, I have gotten everything back ok. I am waiting on my Pirates replacement disc now, but then I just sent it in last week. Typically, the turn around is really good. In most cases, I have gotten the discs back within 2 weeks of sending in the original. A pain yes, but when you get the right product with all the features, it is worth it. I would hope if that if for some reason one of the discs got lost in the mail they would have some way of still giving you the correct disc since you;d still have the case showing you really do own it.

Out of 4 versions, two (PS3 & Wii) have major problems that are angering probably half the people that purcahses them. That's not good business...

Thanks Activision. Thanks.

Plus, I'm able to play Rock Band now that I have two PS2 guitars!! What a mess… glad I bought the PS2 version and returned the Wii version once I heard about this.
