Default Master of Orion 2 - Battle at Antares [GOG]

This is sort of a mixed thing. For one, I'm not sure if it's abandoned or not, since UD has it as buy. But I'm also sure it is, since they also have the ORIGINAL available for purchase. Anyway, if this game is, in fact, abandoned, why not put it up here? It's an improvement upon the original.

I got master of orion 2 together with a whole bunch of older games way back when i had my first computer... guess it was on the verge of becoming abandonware then.
However I don't think it is legal abandonware yet

Why wouldn't it be?

Microprose is "owned" by Atari now, and they dropped support for all the Microprose games since they didn't have any of the old staff.

I think it was picked up my a company like sold out software. I got it from EA classics myself. I have read on various occasions that it is not abandoneware. HotOD does not have it.

HotUD doesn't have it, but it also has Master of Orion listed as BUY.

Yeah, true enough. I disagreed with their assesment of that game. MoO2 is not abandoneware for me though. It's not that old and even though I have not seen it for sale in a shop for quite some time there are still plenty of outlets on the internet that sell it.

I'm convinced MoO2 is abandonware..

Type in www.microprose.com in your browser and hit enter. It takes you to the Atari website.... more "proof" it's abandonware. I also haven't seen it for legitamite purchase ANYWHERE, except for sites on the internet. I highly doubt that, if you order it from them, it'd come. This is coming from someone who ordered the Fallout Dual Jewel from the main site.. It still hasn't come. I ordered it about a month ago.
