You can find the other half of Black Ops 2 in the Mass Effect Trilogy.

No wonder the campaign reviews are good.

this is the best one so far

 

[GayForMaster]

I thought it'd be an actual Mass Effect 2 disc but it has the black ops 2 label. That's HILARIOUS HAHAHAHAHA

 

[donny2112]

How is this even possible? oO


Two different publishers.

So Respawn used their "in" with EA and some old Activision buddies to get Mass Effect 2 data onto the BlOps2 disks, then.

Black Ooops

fuck, beaten in the other thread

 

[Windam]

Haha what? How would this even happen?

[Canis lupus]

You wanted CoD in future.

 

[Haunted]

wtf does a 5 hour campaign need 2 discs for in the first place.


I remember the good old days of reaching the second disc on my jRPG after 20+ hours.

 

[Interfectum]

wasn't the original thread title "Black Oops 2"? I thought that was pretty funny.

 

[Cramoss]

Hilarious.

 

[Chip N Chance]

Are there actual ME2 files on disk 2, or is it just named ME2.

Reminds me of when the Xbox version of Need For Speed Carbon having a PSN store. Or Tiger 99 containing South Park episodes.

 

[cjkeats]

Please tell me you can install ME 2 from that disk. That would be the best thing.

Also, the guy in that video is a bit of a dick about it. I would be too flabbergasted to be angry.

 

[Mr. Robot]

I guess that someone on the printing facility wasnt paying attention and saw something with 2 on it, and sent them away, giving birth to Black Effect: Mass Duty 2

 

[UnluckyKate]

Just saw this over reddit.

Outstanding QA test Activision... Not even checking their disc printing

amazing!

i'll quote the most in important thing:

Rumor has it that about a thousand customers who purchased Call of Duty: Black Ops II for PC today were also treated to a surprise copy of Mass Effect 2. If you were one of the affected, chances are you thought it was a mistake, but we prefer to think that it was an omen, and when the universe talks, you should listen.

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.

added to the op as well.

Wait, so the screw up was on Activision, and EA are the ones compensating? lol

Now that's something... Bioware giving 3 free games for a mistake from Activision's disc printing factory.

 

[sk3tch]

My 2nd disc was Black Ops II. I was kind of hoping it was Mass Effect 2 so I could get a replacement.

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

BioWare really, really, really wants that Call of Duty audience!

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Activision giving out free EA games now?

Shiiiiet

 

[cntr]

Free Mass Effect? shit, son

 

[BosSin]

I wonder if this will become some kind of rare collectors item
