Over 900 unreleased video games and DVDs were found in the apartment of a Technicolor employee on Friday, according to a Mephis Commercial Appeal report that appeared on Joystiq.

Police learned of the theft after being tipped off by an employee at Technicolor, which provides packaging, warehouse storage and distribution for video games and DVDs.

The 97 recovered games included copies of Fable II (360), which hits stores today, and Gears of War 2 (360), which arrives on November 7. According to an affidavit, suspect Rodney Gray was planning to sell the games and DVDs on the black market. All together, the goods stored in Gray's apartment were valued at over $100,000.

Gray has been charged with theft of property worth $60,000 or more, with a second and unknown Technicolor employee under investigation. Police say it is currently unclear how much of the unreleased media was sold on the black market.

Pirated Copy of Gears of War 2 Hits the Internet

With so many users getting the game so early, it shouldn't come as a surprise that a pirated copy of Gears of War 2 has already been leaked in its entirety onto warez sites. The pirated copy, which has been created by group x360inT from the NTSC edition of the game, was released early this morning on a private tracker. With a total file size of 6.76GB, the download has been split into 73 RAR files.

It is worth mentioning that pirated Xbox 360 games only work on modified systems.

Good lord, you'd have to pay me to try downloading 73 rars of that size.
Frankly, I could barely stomach the undertaking of having to install from the 6 CD's or whatever I had for CoD4.

He can't be the only one .

With Bittorrent, you can download the 73 rars with one click
