“Sadly, apparently Activision’s not sure what hard drives they’re on in their building,” Hasbro told TFW2005. “When a company eats a company that eats a company things get lost, and that’s very frustrating.”

They are really bad at storing games apparently, this isn't the first time lol

Some intern who got fucked over by Activision knows exactly where they're stored and is laughing his ass off right now.

They are bad at most things.

And this is one of the reasons piracy is ethical. Dumb upper management types, losing track over people's hard work and arguably human culture, only to go "whoopsie doodle". Even Nintendo used some ripped ROMs of their old games they have lost.

I was wondering why Fall of Cybertron is not on Steam. Guess that explains it. Such a shame since it's a great game.
