  • That’s what makes it even more sad that older games are unavailable, they are so much easier to emulate and store than newer games. Fun semi relevant fact the new release of Doom is about twice the hardisc space of the original release because the splash screen at the beginning takes up as much space as the game itself.

    Sadly online only games are increasing popular so now newer and newer games are able to suddenly disappear and require server side emulation to even play single player. Ross Scott talks a lot about studios killing games.

    Thankful piracy is keeping a lot of early to mid 2000s games alive, including the overgrowing catalog of EA (and games that have since been bought out by EA) games that they own and don’t even sell in their store for some reason.
