Well time for another great idea straight out of the depths of Omuletzu's skull
Okay get this :
We build a program that will include all the cheats available on our database(a kind of dlh, but only for old games!).Perhaps we could go beyond that, and include many other cheats for old games, that aren't even on our database.I mean we are in old games bussiness, why not build a software wich will enable the user to browse through our cheatbase( :whistle: ) offline.Better yet we could have links to our games, something like
(just is just an example, with fictive cheats):
Dune 2
see all - see the whole map
give me money - gives 500 credits
........ and so on ......
And at the bottom a link:
Want the game? Get it here

And the program would have an auto-update function, wich would keep you up to date... So how about it? In regards to the programming i must say that i can be of little assistance, because i only know a little VB(building calculators, and simple things like that...).Anyway if the idea is to be applied, i have some tutorials, and i could help in the long period...So how about it??

I think there are already billions of cheatbases on- and off-line!

About tutorials, you can add them with the rest of the cheats above review of the game! :ok:
So as you can see we have cheatbase, but it's bad side is that it is on-line!

Omuletzu 05-11-2004 03:26 PM

No you didn't understand me: i don't want a cheatbase on every game available, i want a cheatbase only about old games that are/are not on abandonia.Those that are on abandonia could have a link, below the cheat, to download it.

Unknown Hero 05-11-2004 03:30 PM

Yes, but I have cheatbase for old and for new games, so what's the big difference - just write name of the game, and the cheat will show up!

Omuletzu 05-11-2004 03:41 PM

Right we'll i'm glad to hear your opinion... anybody else got one?? :evil:

Eagle of Fire 05-11-2004 03:44 PM

Yes; I don't like cheats. Thus, no reason for me to even be slightly interested.

Unknown Hero 05-11-2004 03:46 PM

I don't like cheats, but sometimes, cheats and walkthroughts do the job! :ok:

Omuletzu 05-11-2004 03:57 PM

Okay nobody likes cheats, but that's not the point of the software!!
The point is promoting the site, by adding links to the cheats...

And i feel that by making a nice(and retro) interface, and having a rich(but not necessarily large) cheatbase, we can beat every other program of the gendre.But as i said the point of the software isn't necessarily providing cheats, but providing cheats altogether with links to the actual game!!Thus drawing people to abandonia.... If we are going to beat HotU we need somekind of booster, and these kind of innovative ideas could do the trick(the crowd stands up and begins to applaud)

:Titan: :Titan:

Well, whatever floats your boat...

But I am still against the idea. Only for the principle...

Havell 05-11-2004 04:49 PM

I think it would be good because it can be hard to find a good selection of cheats for old games, Also, it will lead new people to the site, which is always nice.
