What happens to a game cd key if

[thechampishere]

if you buy a game and you deside to return it to where you got it from what happens to the cd key? Cause i bought quake 4 and i mean its allright but i dont really want to have wasted 50 bucks for the mult which really wasnt that good but i would still play it if i could keep my cd key so what happens to the cd keys if you return a game?

You'd better ask that in gameworld you know.

[thechampishere]

well i figured it might be better here

[GepperRankins]

the shop probably won't want it back because the CD key is now yours

[Gripper]

wrong place wrong time,you keeps it you gets a copy and you plays it i guess

[thechampishere]

yeah but its walmart they take that crap back all the time

[GepperRankins]

so take it back. i reckon proper games shops with clever staff wouldn't accept it though, because they can't sell it on if you still use the license

[thechampishere]

yeah but walmart took my friends Madden and he uses the CD key still

[GepperRankins]

oh i get your question. i doubt they'll have a procedure. they most likely won't even realise, so you can still use it if you take it back. you'll just need a no cd crack

[thechampishere]

allright thanks man
