the date of fi rst purchase. If you discover a problem with the Game 

covered by this warranty within the 90-day period, your retailer 

will repair or replace the Game at its option, free of charge, 

according to the process identifi ed below. This limited warranty: 

(a) does not apply if the Game is used in a business or for a 

commercial purpose; and (b) is void if any diffi culties with the 

Game are related to accident, abuse, virus or misapplication.

RETURNS WITHIN 90-DAY PERIOD

to your retailer along with a copy of the original sales receipt 

and an explanation of the diffi culty you are experiencing with the 

Game. At its option, the retailer will either repair or replace the

the original warranty period or 30 days from receipt, whichever is 

longer. If for any reason the Game cannot be repaired or replaced, 

you will be entitled to receive your direct (but no other) damages

warranties, conditions or duties and no others of any nature are 

made or shall be binding on Microsoft, its retailers or suppliers.

which it is contained are limited to the 90-day period described 

above. TO THE FULL EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, NEITHER MICROSOFT, ITS
