Halloween Quiz

[Hobbes]

Yippee! Almost first, almost first!!

I would chose:

Panzer Campaigns: Bulge 44: I always liked to try one of these HPS titles.

Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl: Many people will be happy if I have the possibility to relieve some aggressions...

Come and See: Long time since I saw a Russian movie.

Thanks a lot!!!

Cheers
Norbert

Looks like you got those three Prima! Congrats on your almost first place.
Send me a PM with a postal address and I will put them in the post on Friday.
(Well my wife will).

All great games and DVD's - but make sure you watch Come and See in the original language with subtitles - it's far better than when dubbed.

Cheers, Chris

Hi Lod, congrats - and thank you for saving me from shipping cake or death!
(I would have found a way to do either you know (maybe a British steak)).

Great Invasions and The Crossing on their way on Friday - just PM a postal address.

Cheers, Chris

I think a lot of DVD's are easy to convert to both however if you have a quick look on the net - type in your DVD player model and the word 'hack'.
My DVD player cost $30 and can play both after I entered a command that took me 30 seconds.

(Maybe it will mess up your player though - so on your head be it).

Mine is a Sony leure: I would need to buy a special cable, or a special remote.

How about both Antietam and Bull Run, since the other guys didn't choose either of them.

Thanks again.

I need at least 3 names in the hat - I need somebody on cake or death!)

Cake or death? I must say I did not expect some kind of Spanish inquisition!

Well, I didn't know any spooky regions. I looked for Salem, Mass and Tombstone, AZ, but of course neither of those is part of the map, and I gave up.

U never tried to enter USA Korrigan?
First time i went to visiting my Ex, i landed in SF on the 10 sep 2001. Around the time of Cow madness and a foot and mouth outbreak in the UK. Comming from Denmark. Ok i know Jutland is 1 big pig farm, but i lived in Copenhagen. From stepping off the plane until i had left customes. I didnt start counting until after the 6th or 7th time. i had been ask by numerous different ppl(10+). When have u last been inside a pig sty? which was some 20 years ago at that time. Also high on the list was. Do u have any food wares along? When did i last have any physical contact with a cow? Exactly what do they insinuate with that question?
My final count depending on if it was 6 or 7 totalled at 17 or 18 times.

Some how next time i went to visit her, the questions had changed and I wasnt asked once about cows, pigs or any related items. Did i have any Bombs, scissors, terror groups affiliations and when was i planning on leaving the country topped the list then.

Entering the US (as an alien) is a dreadful experience. Would it hurt them to smile and have a joke as they check you out?

My wife is American so I go there once or twice a year and dread going through the controls. She says coming back to England is just as bad but I don't think she sees it.
