What's this I hear about Nascar4 being released in Europe? I hope it's true as it will save me from forking out $20 to get it shipped. Great news, TkT
Last I heard, N4 was being released ONLY in North America and Germany. Is that Euro enough for you? dave henrie "Tekno" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Indeed, and I saw it priced at DM50,- by a German game shop, that's about US$24! What a deal! If it's just released in the US and Germany (somehow I doubt that), you could just order the German version. No need to order a German-English dictionary with it, it'll be the US-version with German manual...but who needs a manual? l8er ronny -- This is Linux country.

http://www.okaysoft.de/ Have not checked other shops. But the price is ok :) > > >No need to order a German-English dictionary with it, it'll be the > >US-version with German manual... > > Are you 100% sure?

It says German manual and in the game English. Pascal.

I'd like to help our other Euro friends who will have no other option but to buy the American version and have it shipped over seas. Since NASCAR was invented by Southern Americans, commonly referred to as "Southerners", the translation could be a little hard. Here are a few terms translated to standard English so Foreigners, commonly referred to by Southerners as "Ferners" can look them up in a translation dictionary. Phrase Translation "Had to shut'er down" - Had to shut her down. Turned off the engine before something bad happened to the car "Had a purdy good day" - Had a pretty good day. Took a car only capable of finishing 25th or worse and finished in the top ten. "Got in the ambalance" - Got in the ambulance. A vehicle that takes drivers involved in accidents to the Infield Care Center "I seen the #xx car spin" - I SAW the #xx car spin. Anyone else with other suggestions?

As mentioned by Pascal, it's www.okaysoft.de. Before I order I have to call my local Mediamarkt, as I hate nothing more than having a sim on mail order and standing in front of it in the store....argh! > > >No need to order a German-English dictionary with it, it'll be the > >US-version with German manual... > > Are you 100% sure?

But then there's always http://1st-blaze.euhost.com . :-) Yes, they wouldn't sell it for that price after spending money translating text and speech. But we know which game versions we have to buy, don't we? "Kann nicht schwanzen unter Androhung!"

Change all 4 tires and add wedge(crossweight) "It's Just Air Jack" Used whenever the Ford owners accuse you of cheating by adding banned substances to the tire inflation or the tire tread itself. Different. (Excuse used by Dodge for being 2mph slower than the rest of the brands) {this comming from a die-hard Mopar fanatic) "Man that #xx car is a rocketship!"
