Definitely not a great way to start the con
Larian Studios sent out a plea to the community today after two PCs containing early builds of Dragon Commander and Original Sin stolen from their gamescom booth. Ouch, definitely not a great way to start the con.
Both computers were last seen in the business hall at gamescom. In exchange for information that would lead to their recovery and the ID and apprehension of the thief, Larian is offering up $5,000 as a reward.
The studio does have backup PCs to use, and they're planning to carry on as planned, but anyone with information about the culprit should head to Business Hall 4.2, Booth A-16. We hope they catch the bastard(s) soon.

Who's the wise guy that decided chopping off a thief's hand isn't right?
