Default MGS3 code stolen from Sony's E3 show floor stand

MGS3 code stolen from Sony's E3 show floor stand (from ircspy.com)
Quote:
LA Convention Centre security staff were left flat-footed and red-faced yesterday as two unknown perps had it away with a copy of the MGS3: Snake Eater demo code. The one level demo, on display at Sony and Konami's stands is almost certainly being duplicated as we speak. Will you see MGS3 first at you local car boot sale?

The LAPD are investigating the incident and are looking for two 19-20 year old males. The code snatchers were able to gain access to the PS2 demoing Snake's hotly anticipated jungle rumble by cracking the perspex case on one of the pods on the Sony stand.

According to eyewitness reports they achieved this by leaning heavily on the unit before simply ejecting the disc and doing a runner from the convention centre - possibly not how Snake would have done it, but apparently effective.

* Wonders where the news editors went... *
Now seriously guys, you can't do this! Just destroy the copies, put the original in Marek's bag and drug him near the Sony stand, someone is bound to find out.

At E3 that ought to help narrow it down to just everybody.

I wonder if it was Tycho and Gabe?
But seriously, why not steal a booth bunny?

But Double fine isn't currently hiring bunnies, so what would be the point?
