Lol that was what i instantly thought when I saw the mention of Abandonware

Still got some links saved from when Davey explained all about the various lawsuits to do with it.

Aye, the copyright laws around games were one of my specialities for a while. I've forgotten a bit now as I don't have the same need for the knowledge, but I still find it very interesting.

I've got several links that I know are legal - but would get deleted on OcUK by over zealous people...

Complete Team17 back catalogue anyone?

Syndicate Wars was stunning, still have the cd rom here somewhere.

Me and mates used to just chuck the all weapons cheat in, something about hearing that robotic woman say 'cataclysm' and 'satellite rain' made me smile

Oh and btw, for abandonware www.abandonia.com ftw! \o/

Ohh really? I didnt know that!!

I have found some awesome games whilst bored in some ****ty little hotel whilst abroad... yes I know they use the "ware" to make it sound legal, but I don't care - they don't sell those games anymore do they?
