Champions Online... You have failed me for the last time...

Well got back home at my place today and after doing a little clean up around the house n stuff I got online to get some gaming in. Logged onto to Champions Online and hit an error. meh saw the error last week and didn't give it much mind because the game is new, there's bound to be hick ups. Did some more digging and discovered that I didn't actually buy the retail version of the game with the package I bought and can't play it. I double checked all my stuff and looked at the lifetime subscription I bought from Cryptic and sure enough it includes a download of the game. Well that's some slick bait and switch, include a download of the game, just not the retail version and don't tell the customer. So after getting a bunch of snotty comments about it on the Champions Online forum boards I've decided to cut my losses and get my money back. I'll probably have to get belligerent with Cryptic to get my money but I've gotten used to that.

EDIT: It works out for the best anyway, I really wasn't enjoying the game at all. I didn't get to any end game content or anything so I'm not sure how really that bad it was in the end, but the poor mechanics and lack of social tools made the game noticeably bad enough that it got in the way of me enjoying the game and since the ride there is more important than the destination, that's not good. If just one of those were a serious problem instead of both I would probably still be on board. The creative effort that went into the game was great, Oh well. Incorporating some of the elements of the hero system would have fixed most of the game mechanic issues I ran across but that's pretty common with a lot of level based games.
