Sony has kept -- or lost -- my Rock Band game when I sent my PS3 in for service.  Lame.

First call

Me: "Uhm, yeah, you forgot to send my game back."
Them: "What game?"
Me: "Rock Band.  I wrote on the form that it was stuck in the console."
Them: "Did you write on the form that there was a game stuck in the console?"
Me: "...yes, I wrote on the form that it was stuck in the console."
Them: "We have no record of your game.  Are you sure you don't still have it?"

Second call

Me: "So, I double checked... I don't have the game anywhere at home."
Them: "What game?"
Me: "Rock Band.  I wrote on the form that it was stuck in the console."
Them: "We have no record of your game.  Are you sure you don't still have it?"
Me: "I'm sure."
Them: "Did you write on the form that there was a game stuck in the console?"
Me: "...yes, I wrote on the form that it was stuck in the console."
Them: "Oh, well, we ship the games back separately from the console.  Wait a few days and see if it shows up."

Third call

Me: "I haven't received my game yet."
Them: "What game?"
Me: "Rock Band.  I wrote on the form that it was stuck in the console."
Them: "We have no record of your game.  Are you sure you don't still have it?"
Me: "I'm sure."
Them: "Did you write on the form that there was a game stuck in the console?"
Me: "...yes, I wrote on the form that it was stuck in the console."
Them: "Could you fax us a copy of the form?"
Me: "Wait.  What?  I don't have the form, I sent it with the console."
Them: "You should have gotten the form back with the replacement."
Me: "Nope.  I never got it."
Them: "Oh, well, that would have shown us that you wrote on the form that there was a game stuck in the console."
Me: --
Them: "We'll do some stuff over here and we'll call you back in a few days."
Me: --

Will there be a fourth call?  Or more?  To be continued...

Clearly they're secretly playing it.

They only enjoy playing stolen games.

Unlucky bud, they usually send the game straight back (had a buddy who's far cry 2 was stuck in, got it back within 3 days) hope you get it sorted soon!

Seems to me that some dude at the Sony repair center stole your game and got rid of the form so you can't prove anything.

Hope this all gets solved, read up on your laws in case it doesn't and jsut write up a menacing lawyer-like letter saying you will sue for the game and they'll get off their asses and search for it or just give you a new one.

Thanks everyone.  I hope they hook me up... otherwise it's like paying $150 to lose my game.

@OldManLollipop, @ Kazona That's exactly I what I was thinking!
@StaticFalconar Or, I could just download the form again, fill it out... hmmm...
@shadows_kill I was thinking about buying Rock Band 2 and renting Rock Band 1 just so I can do the track export.  But still, I would like my damn game back.
@Karmum Hahaha, funny.  No, they were real people; I could tell because they had to put me on hold a lot.  And I mean a LOT.

Apparently, someone wanted a copy of Rock Band at Sony's customer service office.

Wait... are you sure you still don't have it?


Sorry, anyway, you shouldn't give up. They must have somewhere a copy of the form you sent them. It's a document, they can't throw it away.

Yeah, I would go with this. Most likely you won't see your RB disk again, so your best hope is to complain and they'll probably give you a PSN card or something similar.

I love this kind of stuff! Not your misfortune, this comical incompetence. Now that the elections are over and Sarah Palin isn't putting her foot in her mouth as much, I need my new fix. Hopefully there is a fourth call and you can post it up here and hopefully fourth time is the charm. Just remember to tell them that you wrote on the form that your game was stuck in the console. ;)

Sounds exaggerated, but if it is true, then that sucks and is funny at the same time.

Next time you either call them or get  a call, request to speak to their supervisor.  You might be able to get something done that way.

Ouch dude. When my PS3 broke both times, the people were extremely nice and did whatever they could to get my box/coffin to me, and my new PS3 back ASAP. I would say you're screwed, one of the guys probably threw the game away by accident, something stupid like that. You can always buy Rock Band 2 (coming out soon, I think).
