    EIEF 2006 :: What games make you cry?

    An embarrassing topic? I once dressed up as a rubber mobile phone when I worked for Vodaphone and roamed the streets of Walsall handing out flyers and being recognised by friends and abused by kids, so talking about the games that make me cry is a breeze.

    Check out the Feature for more info.

    Then let us know what games have made you cry.

    Thats like so common in every gamers life , sometimes you cross the line and you forget there is a more virtual world other than the one displayed by the monitor.
