be patient people

Considering how crappy movie based games are normally, Elvira really stands out. Thank God they didn't base the story on the Elvira movies and actually managed to produce fun games with the franchise.

Btw, there was also an Elvira action game, much like Turrican, just with Elvira as hero.

1. We have a code of honor here - only games that are not commercially avaible are put on Abandonia.
2. They could effect shutting the entire site down. Companies are sensitive on releasing freely their games that are still on sale. Hell, some are sensitive on just releasing their old products, even though they cannot be purchased anymore anywhere.

:not_ok: :not_ok:
Every abandonware site has to be "soft" in order to survive!

Yeah. And we don't want the companies getting medieval on our collective backside, do we?
If you cannot understand that, BLOODUK, then maybe you were looking for a w**ez site, not abandonware one.

Quite a few of your posts imply to me that you don't see too clearly the difference between what is abandonware and what is w**ez.
To remind you of their definitions:
Abandonware is not sold by the producer or retailers (note that this also applies to collection packs and the like) nor supported.
W**ez is illegal, as these games/programs are still sold. Note that if the company that published the game is an ESA member, their games can never attain abandonware status. On other hand, some authors and companies just of pure honesty release their older titles as public domain or freeware after a couple of years.

Because nobody here wants to get involved in w**ez?

+++Edit: Softened the blow+++
Sorry, Omuletzu. Better now?
