A simple photo does not show.... I agree with you. But the source article doesn't say that, it just says
If the universe thinks that you should be playing Mass Effect right now, who are we to argue? In fact, we want to help! The first fifty fans affected by this phenomenon to send us a picture holding their special disc 2 will receive a code for a FREE PC copy of Mass Effect Trilogy.
Remember, in order to qualify, YOU must be in the picture, and disc 2 of your Call of Duty: Black Ops II must be visible. Got it? |

This would not happen if all software came on single 5 1/4 floppies. >_>
It's most likely the fault of the CD pressing plant. |

Cool move by Bioware.
I'm sure Bobby Cocktick will charge those affected 20 bucks to swap their discs out for a proper one. And they have to pay shipping both ways.

I mean, don't get me wrong..EA is one big asshole...but I am hard pressed to find anything to criticize here.
You know, you're right. I forgot it was separate publishers. Totally my mistake - thanks for the correction.
Rescinding my last comment and changing it to 'it's hard to bag on EA for this one - they didn't have to do anything'.

Yep, bribing people to like BioWare again WHILE getting valuable information as to the batch/location for where the mix-up occurred. Two birds, etc. |

I thought the discs were printed correctly but just had the wrong data. How do the photos show the wrong disc? Is it a different paint job then the COD and the Mass Effect 2 games on the flub? |
