Title: Lego LOTR potentially collectable misprint.

Hard to tell with these kinds of things, but if I got one of these I would keep it  :)

Gamefly is supposed to ship this game this week. It should be interesting to see which version it is. Thanks for the news.

According to Game Informer the disc does contain the full game, but was accidentally labelled "Demo Disc."

Looks like this will be a collectable variant. I'd keep it too if I got one of these.

Article in the first post said the same thing.

Quick, someone please come up with a clever comment about how much better off those people are with ME2 than CODBLOPSTOO. I'm drawing a blank here!

There is a bug in the PC version of BLOPS 2 that cuases the game ot crash almost immediately after it is loaded. To bypass this you have to set your time zone to +8 or China. This causes the game to load properly. Not exactly a misprint but still...

that must only happen on some hardware setups, because i've put in about 2 hours on the campaign with no problems, and a friend has beaten it already without crashing.

You are correct. I should have specified that in my previous post. Of the people I know that purchased BLOPS 2 for PC 3 out of 4 had to change the time zone. Based upon that and some Google searching it seemed to be a larger enough issue to make a port about.
