  I believe as the seal has been broken all you will be offered is the standard trade in price you may want price the part exchange price in other shops such as CEX as generally they pay more money than Game.

  Yep, if the seal is broken then it is treated as a Trade In and you will get Trade In price for it.

  Yup, you'll only get trade in price. Consider it an expensive rental/demo seeing as you're only returning due to personal preference.

  Dont trade it in at game. That game you paid 44.99 for will only get you 22 quid and it'll be backnon the shelf for 42.99.
  If you can stomach the great unwashed then go to cex.

  Or put it on eBay or Gumtree. You get more money than a trade in and someone will buy it for less than they'd get it for at Game.
  
  Win win.

  Or ask Game to beat their competitors and get a £1 more than anywhere else making game the best shop to trade in
  
  Also what do you want game to do, sell the pre owned game at a loss, how would that make any sense?

  Some people on this Forum really do have a jaded opinion of Game, it's very unjustified.

  This happens more than you think. (I work for Game)
  
  You wont be able to retunr the game for a full refund because the game's seal is broken and the game has been played with.
  As there is nothing wrong with the game apart from you not wanting it after playing there is little you can do.
  
  Game do offer trade ins on certain games so that you get a (slightly) better than trade in discount on new games by part ex your old game but without knowing what game it is you have bought I am unable to advise you if there will be an offer coming up on it.
  
  CEX do offer a £1 more buy out but you will only see at best half of your cash back (depending on the game)
