Default OK, I officially hate the german "Media Markt"

Just went through the city center and spotted a huge advertisement on the entrance of the local "Media Markt" a big electronics and computer store here in Germany.

The Advertisement showed a US submarine and the letters "S I L E N T H U N T E R IV - wolves of the pacific" and was about 2 x 3 meters in size.
Well, let's go for it, I thought and went in, to find out that not one single copy of SH4 was inside.

Yeah, did you ask why? I would have went up to someone who works there and said...

"I see your BIG sign out front advertising SHIV. I can't seem to find it in here. Could you please tell me where it is?"

It's simply not released here in Germany. The Ad let me think it would be worth a try.

The "normal" stores haven't Sh4 for sale either, but they are more honest with this.

I'm actually surprised by the advertising for Sh4. One should think Half Life ³ is out, but noo....its a subsim this time.


EDIT: something was wrong with my submit-button and internet-connection. Moderator: please delete the posting above. thx!
