In one of our previous updates we reported that the ELSPA (European Leisure Software Publishers Association) forbids the distribution of complete games on magazine cover disks. That's why the UK edition of PC Gamer didn't come with Wing Commander 1 and ten other complete games. At least, that's what their CD Editor told us. Cédric Wasser got his hands on an Italian edition, and guess what? Its cover disk does carry the free classic games (in their original, English version).
Either somebody made a mistake, or their CD Editor made that up. Afterall, many magazines illegally carried Secret Ops and the ELSPA didn't seem to care about that.
After posting this I realized the photo really isn't too clear, but what's done is done. I was cleaning up not too long ago and snapped a picture of most of my boxes lined up. It's probably not nearly as impressive as my Super Soaker Wall, but sitting right here looking up at it is somewhat neat. Sorry for the flash blur-out, I think most things are recognizable though.
I'm hearing most everyone should have their stuff by now, except for stuff that shipped international or book rate. Somehow I'm fitting in time to get the last two books out today, so expect mysterious packages Boeman and Ladiesman. Last call Bugscratch and Dougie, drop me a line.
