Premier Manager 98

[stevolution]

Hi,

I've been looking for these games for ages and no luck. I found the 97 version on Shareaza (via eDonkey) but it was a dodgy version with graphics missing that crashes about one an hour. I believe these games would be a great edition to Abandonia seeing no one else seems to have them and they're sought after. Any help would be appreciated.

IIRC, they are protected. And too new for the site.

[Timpsi]

Yep, they are ESA protected (Gremlin was bought by Infogrames, which in turn became Atari). However, I wouldn't call them too young for the site, as there are younger ones in already.

Ah. That explains why I couldn't access Gremlin's site the other day. Thanks for the info guys. :ok:

Gremlin Interactive? Been out of existence for some time. They had a ton of funding when they first appeared on the scene, produced a large number of titles, good and bad, and got very lofty: their PR folks refused to hand out review copies to critics who couldn't guarantee a positive review. When they started getting no press coverage and it was discovered why, the PR department was fired and an outside PR agency used, but by then they were already having severe troubles with over-commitment. Massive debts forced them to close, and sell off their assets (including their old titles) to other companies.

Aye, Gremlin Interactive went bye bye. :bye:

It's 2008, and therefore unprotection time. :D
