Just remember... getting the companies to Abandonia will result in us all losing both a great site and a great community. Not to mention getting Kosta and all the high command to court for software piracy - when one company gets on that, the rest will join in as quickly as flies on a corpse. Pax? |

That's why, for example, Jim Gasperini could claim ownership of his 1980s title, Hidden Agenda, despite the fact that Springboard Software, the publisher, has been gone for nearly two decades. Gasperini wrote it, and he can claim the intellectual copyright. Fortunately, he's generous: he offers the game free on his website to anybody who will contribute to one of a group of charities that Gasperini supports. Other developers don't want their titles available currently, and keep a tight rein on them. It isn't worth the trouble arguing with them. The best thing you can hope for is that the company or developer simply doesn't care any longer. That explains why EA, which owns everything Orogin Systems ever did, doesn't come after websites that give away the Ultima titles. EA realizes the huge interest in those games will simply drive the transaction underground if they attempt to sell them; though it wouldn't surprise me if someday, someone in their bookeepping department gets the bright idea to do just that, again. Then we could expect to receive dunning notices demanding that the Ultima games be removed from Abandonia. |
