Today saw the extreme rare occurrence of a major game release becoming fumbled due to a mishap taking place at where said title is physically produced. Which was what happened with the PC version of Black Ops 2, but get this: lighting has struck twice, somewhat.
Kotaku reports that Warner Brothers is recalling Lego Lord of the Ring for the Xbox 360 due to another kind of manufacture error. In this case, instead of the full game being enclosed, customers are discovering that they have a demo disc instead.
Though according to Warner Bros, it's just a labeling error:
"Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment is recalling a small number of LEGO The Lord of the Rings video games that were released for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft to Walmart, Target and Toys ‘R' Us in the United States with a disc labeling error. The discs in question are incorrectly labeled as demo discs, but those discs do contain the full game content and are fully functional. This error does not affect any other formats of the game. We are in the process of remanufacturing the discs and will get them to the stores as soon as possible.
Consumers who purchased a copy of the Xbox 360 version of the game with the disc labeling error can contact customer support via email at [email protected] or phone at 410-568-3680 for a replacement disc."
So if your copy says Demo Disc, do not fret. It's the full game after-all. But if you'd rather have the product as its intended to be, and not something that could potentially be a collector's item, at least there's a possible course of action.
