This reads like it was written by a guy who did some homework first.

BTW I am not a fan boy :)

I wonder if Mo gets pissed off when he flies and the bias causes the plane he's tracking to disappear on him.  ;)

Might be time to give WWIIOL a try.

Anyone playing it now have an opinion?

I have a new boxed WWIIOL game I'd ship to anyone with a reasonable trade. It's just as bought, CD code included. Opened and loaded once, I didn't smash this copy.

I prefer OFP, as my original disk is so dirty it won't load, ( I have bought all the add-ons) but a Links game or anything like MOH would be fine.

 I registered with the code for a day, it may still be useable, not sure.

Edit- It's "the Sim of the Year " "Readers Choice Edition"

I have two copies (Kieran gave me one and I bought one from the $5.99 bargain bin).  One is unopened, the other has been used and registered, but I think the account info is transferable.  I offer them for the same terms as Creamo.

I'll throw in a "Ms. PBR" Yahoo Swinger account password. And a free leather chaps dry cleaning from "Mr. Clean" in Dunbarton, Wisconsin.

Oh man, the first time I bought a 6-pack of Olde English 800 I drank the whole thing in about 2 hours.  I don't remember anything else.

If you were a true gangster, you would buy only the "8 Ball" Old English, what is it, a 64oz bottle?, in a brown bag. Let the looting begin!

I play it almost every day. It is much better than it was even 6 months ago.

Look for WBarker in game. I can give you a lesson if you are a newbie.

Basicly take everything Oed just posted and reverse it for me :)  it's just about the only game I play now.  Yes it can get frustrating at times, but what game doesn't?

 Finding a nice hill over a town parking your tank under a tree and raining MG and 37mm main gun fire down on a town is quite satisfying :)  had a 47 kill mission the other night :D

actually, WWIIOL is the only game I've ever owned where bugs drove me to not play it.  I take that back, I forgot about Ultima: Ascension.  Ok, two games that are there solely for me to poop on.  (hehe, Triumph rules!)
