Did this really just happen?(small rant)
VashTS | 12:56 AM on 06.30.2009 22 comments


I am a lurker on destructoid. I admit it. I comment once in a while and thats about my fair share of giving back to the community. I like to play and beat a decent RPG once in a while. Enough about me though, lets procede to the problem at hand.



Last christmas I recieved Last Remnant for Xbox 360. I found myself playing it once in a while and then lost interest around feburary. Now summer rolls around and I have nothing better to do than to enjoy beating some good ol' video games. I started a small marathon over the past week or so playing the game Last Remnant and it grabbed my interest once again. Here's where it gets good. A few minutes ago I get to the second disc swap screen.



The game prompts me, and I do what it says. It then notifies me that I must insert disc 2, even though thats what I put in.....right? I then continue to open the DVD tray in confusion and read the DVD and it says, "DVD 1". I look in the case to see what disc I put back, and it read, "DVD 1".

And that's that. I guess buying the game on release at amazon for 40 bucks wasn't that great of a deal!
I have no idea what to do. Any suggestions?

Try contacting Square Enix tech support maybe? They might be able to get you the correct disc copy.
IronPikeman's Destructoid Blog
Square Enix or Amazon should be able to sort it out, as long as the extra first disc is in good condition and you still have some proof of purchase. They shouldn't give you any trouble if you just send in the first disc in exchange for the second...
norm9's Destructoid Blog
Hahaha.

Sorry dude, but its a pretty funny story.
Kyousuke Nanbu's Destructoid Blog
Oh wow that really sucks, trying calling amazon or Square, maybe then can help, I had the same issue a long time ago with a different game.
lastSKYsamurai's Destructoid Blog
Ha ha. Sell the spare on Ebay for a quick 20bucks!
Monodi's Destructoid Blog
Damn, having a long time waiting to notice this must really suck. i suggest to contact them too.
UglyDuck's Destructoid Blog
Track down the guy with two copies of Disk 2. It's your only choice.
Freefall's Destructoid Blog
Get a permanent marker and write '2' on the extra disc. Your 360 won't know the difference!
Velt's Destructoid Blog
I got to get around and play that game on the PC... It was so dense at the moment I got it that I left it aside.
Magnalon's Destructoid Blog

Second, that sucks dude. GL!
TheToiletDuck's Destructoid Blog
What uglyduck said.

Also i had the same thing happen with two copies of Disc 3 instead of Disc 4 for Final Fantasy 8
Elsa's Destructoid Blog
LOL! That is sort of funny! I'm the same way, I doubt I would check the actual disc numbers when I got it.
Naim Master's Destructoid Blog
Well , solve it the capitalist way : sell it to someone else and ignore the problens , it's not your problem anymore after all !
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
Square is never gonna do anything about it. Amazon should. Hope all works out well because this sucks.
Deathofthedead's Destructoid Blog
@ Freefall: Hahaha
Holyetheline's Destructoid Blog
Dude... that sucks... a lot! I feel for you. Find someone who has Disc 2 and borrow it?
The Pat Man's Destructoid Blog
It could be worse. You could be the guy who got two disc 2s =P
Aziel13's Destructoid Blog
the past just PWNdizzled you Bee hind
Discarded Couch Sandwich's Destructoid Blog
I had similar issues with my copy of Lost Oddysey: I was in the zone going onto the final disc at about 2am, placed it in the tray and it failed to load up. Bitch!

Lucky I had the recipt, and got a free game the next day for returning it though. Every frustrating bitchy non working game has a silver lining! I hope.
VashTS's Destructoid Blog
Yeah im just not sure if I should go to square or amazon about this first.
The Pat Man's Destructoid Blog
I would go to Amazon first. However, they might not take anything back because of how long you've had the game. Go to Amazon first. If they fail you, then try square. And if they fail you, go to e-bay and I wish you the best of luck.
