Monday Mind Teasers 05/19/08 photo

You know how it works! With the help of each other, try to figure out all of the disguised game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones.

This week's theme is really easy, but there's only one easy teaser to help you on your way, and the rest are all pretty difficult. To quote Theron from the movie 300, "This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this." Will this be one of the few times where I actually stump everyone? As usual, don't be afraid to shout out ideas and work together as a team to solve them all. Good luck!

Also, to make things even more hard this week, it's worth mentioning that my wifi here in Myrtle Beach is pure crap. So there's a small chance I might not be online to answer your guesses for a while... good luck solving these things solo guys!

I screwed up earlier. East Front II is Medium 4, not Medium 2. Also Hard 3 is Fist of the North Star

@BlackSunEmpire: Good eye. I own Guild Wars Eye of the North and I did not recognize that one at all.

Hard 2 is DMZ: North Korea. Looks like Medium 2 and Hard 4 are all that's left.

@Fangeh It was the sideboob that alerted me, I'd recognise sideboobs anywhere.
