Lol at game factory mistakes

I'm pretty much 95% sure this was a factory mistake.

My brother just bought a game for XBOX 360, NEW for 10$ called Avatar Burning Earth

He opens the case, and there are 2 discs in there, the second game being Naruto Rise of a Ninja
Rise of a Ninja is $20 New, and both discs are new.

Nowhere on the case does it say that it comes with second game / free demo. This is the actual full Naruto game.

So, why would a Ubisoft game be in a THQ case?

Is there a general factory where ALL 360 games are manufactured, and the machine ACCIDENTALLY packaged a different disc along with the avatar game?

Rest assure my brother isn't complaining or returning the second disc :)

That is the luckiest event ever. I'm always happy when I press the button on a vending machine and something comes out without me paying but that is so good.

Thats like the time I reached under my chair for no apparent reason and I pulled out a 5 dollar bill.

Maybe you should rename it to Lucky events in your life.

Sweet, if only it hapened a bit more often, last time I got that lucky I was cleaning my room and found an un opened birthdaycard with 20$ inside, it was a good day.

My one friend tho had a reverse of this when he bought Resident evil 4 for PS2 and opened the case to find Megaman in it.

I've found a $10 dollar bill covered in chocolate before. =O

I've also found a $5 dollar bill in front of a cashier downtown, nobody even noticed it. O_o

And there was this glitchy vending machine where if you ordered an Iced Tea, you got two bottles for the price of one.

That's... about it, really.

I've purchased a DVD before that had the wrong DVD in it. I liked the mistake better than what I was intending to purchase, so I kept it. XD

Well, I found a $20 bill on the ground when I was out for a morning walk. And I've found $1 and 5$ bills before, but I don't usually find money.

I've never gotten an extra game disc before though.

Wow that's pretty cool lol. What a nice surprise! Like other people have posted, the only thing sort of like that that's happened to me is getting multiple soda's from a vending machine at a time for the price of one. Always a bonus.

This happened to me once when I ordered a Wrestling DVD (Summerslam 07 i think)

When I opened the case, Summerslam 08 was in aswell as 07. I though maybe Id ordered the two disc set by mistake, but there was nothing on the box saying It was 2 discs, and nothing on the order form was out of order.

I must say though, It made Xmas that little bit more special :D

GAH. Macman you ruin everything. xD

I once bought a Ghost Recon game for the xbox right before a really long car ride (from Louisiana to Tennessee) from Wal Mart and when I opened the box on the way out of the parking lot I told my Dad it was empty. We went back in and I was worried that the lady would think we were scamming her but she just gave us another copy. :)

I got some Skittles from the vending machine once, but the twisty coil that turns once to push out the candy didn't stop, and every pack of Skittles came out. I took them all and didn't ever think twice.
