I have it just because I am a Contra whore. It took me a month to beat the first level so if you dont like games that frustrate you to the point of temporary insanity then maybe its not for you... :)

guess what !!!  i went to EB to exchange 2 games ( medal of honor frontline and soul reaver 2 ) , they would only give me 30 $ for medal of honor and 10 bucks for soul reaver , and i was a bit sad that Contra was 79.99 $ ( Canadien ) , but then the guy told me that they had a deal and that when you bring 2 games , ou can have any game for 9.99 $ , so i got contra for 11$ with taxes ! :) so cool !

EB allows you to bring the disc back in and exchange it for another of the same game if it doesnt work, try that. At least we can do exchanges at my local EB.

At my EB you can only exchange a game once the case has been opened. We had alot of people playing the game until they beat and then bringing it in for a refund. I hate people who abuse the system! Anyways ask for the store policy at your local EB some differ from others.
