[...] they work in a company that defends other companies for erasing the gaming past basically and how any gamer can defend this is beyond me. It's funny to see that a lot of the games that are protected by ESA are now owned by companies that bought out the original publishers - no wonder there's no lack of respect from those publishers for those games.

That's simply not so. If a game's copyright is not owned by the people who created it that's because they sold it. Nobody forced them, they could have published it themselves. And the company that bought the copyright from the original authors can sell it in turn, and so on as many times as you wish. If all transactions are voluntary, how can you say that somebody's not "respected"?
Yes playing games which costed money and effort to create for free is swell, but the thing that suits YOU best is not always the right thing.
