Don't you hate it when you've lost your hard copy of an epic game?

My current predicament is I can't find my Warcraft 3 and its exp pack anywhere. Really pissed as I still have the game manuals and jewel cases.

Anybody else having similar trouble?

Spoiler (highlight to read):
In my defence I've moved around 6 times in the past year. Still inexcusable to lose the disc of such an epic game though.

Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

if u just have a drawer dedicated to them or a wallet then you will very rarely lose any games.

I like how when you lose a disc... you will find every other disc you have ever owned other than the one you are looking for...
Then a couple of months from now you will be looking for another disc and of course you will find the one you couldn't find months ago...lol

Love is the answer

Bl m8 bl.

My bf2 is stuck in an old CD drive in Dad's old PC. He got it blown up and couldn't be fucked getting my game out. He'd scratched it to death anyway.

If you only have the Cd keys for warcraft 3 you could register them on battle.net That way you can download them and play them without a CD.

Warcraft 3 isn't too big of a loss. Shouldn't be that much to replace.

Another story about a stupid CD issue:
In 1996 I borrowed the old adventure game "Toonstruck", which came on two CDs from a budget re-release compilation.
I was happily playing and enjoying the game up to the point where it asked me to enter the second disk. I did so, but nothing happened.
I looked at the CD's content, only to find that it contained some auto route planner software instead of the game.

I was pissed.

I miss those awesome boxes games used to come in.

Games these days have crap packaging and extras.
