Forums - Gaming - Mass Effect 2 mistakenly shipping with Black Ops 2 on PC

 

Excited warmongers looking forward to playing the newly released Call Of Duty game on PC risk disappointment, if dejected reports on the Internet are any indication. Some copies of the game have had their second installation discs replaced with Mass Effect 2

Whoops!

All is not lost. Players can input a serial code on the packaging to download the game, but one would assume folks purchased retail copies of the game to play it instantly. In any case, Activision is yet to address the issue, and reports don't seem all that common. Chances are good that you won't find Mass Effect 2 in place of your second Blops disc ... but it remains a possibility. 

Though Electronic Arts publishes Mass Effect 2, it's likely the two companies use the same disc manufacturing plant, and someone there screwed up quite immensely. In any case, you may now make your jokes about how those users affected "At least now have a good game." 

You know you want to.  

 

 

Source, and video

Now this is a pretty big screw-up if you ask me. I know it's uncommon, but it's something that should be rectified swiftly...

Ugh, a good day for these things it would seem! At least it's only a few copies in the COD case, though (which makes it all the more bizzare...)

Modders should be able to extract the whole ME2 game from there then

Well I'd imagine they'd just be able to play the game actually...the video shows a 'Autostart' button on the disc...

Assuming direct control
This hurts you

Sorry couldn't pass up the chance. Imagine if it happened to the launch batch of the console versions... most epic fuckup ever.
