Good excuses from the gamesforums...

I can't even understand how people can but localized games... Or see dubbed movies for that matter. Like Black&White that was released in ONLY swedish here in sweden.. I went berserk and returned the game and didn't pick it up again until the all languages into english patch was released.

Always original languages for me, even if its mean russian (well not THAT always, but mostly... depends on the game of course).

As for lame excuses I've been through some when dog ate manual, little sister peed on manual, ate the disc and flushed it down the toilet.. or something like that...

Oddly enough, when my dog was a pup he in fact ate half of my Dreamcast collection (about 4 games). That is where I actually first got into creating backups of all my non-music disks.

My dog actually ate half of the age of empires 1 gold edition game (while it was still on the box!) my fav excuse was, i bought the game online but it was faulty after a bit so i sent it back but never got my money back so i deserve to play it o.O
