So I just picked up the EA games collection, because it was on sale and
I'm a miser with a newish PC.  I tried to install James Bond 007
Nightfire first -- it asked for a CD key and said it'd be on the back
of the CD Case -- so I looked at the paper envelope and behold - no
key.

I looked through all the envelopes for the other games, no CD keys --
opened up the CDs and loaded the PDF manuals - just the same.  Did the
same for the Bonus disk - checked for revalent files using Explorer ...
finally I emptied out the box entirely looking for a scrap of paper
which I didn't find.

I just bought a shrink wrapped compilation of games I cant fucking use
.... isnt that special.

Has anybody got this?! And if so are you able to clue me in because I
simply can't believe there is nothing here at all -- I mean -- really?!


EA are closed till during the week so my angry phone call will have to
wait.
