BUDAPEST - A computer game launched on Friday will let ordinary Hungarians haggle with NATO's Secretary General over the costs of the country's accession into the Alliance.

Hungary, which is expected to be invited to join NATO at the alliance's Madrid summit next week, has launched the game as part of the government's domestic pro-NATO campaign ahead of a referendum next year.

The game, NATOpoly, also allows the player to re-enact historic decisions since the second World War, acting as de Gaulle or Churchill.
