I'm all about supporting this but it totally goes against my beliefs to pay money for a download when you can just google torrents for it, yeah. Like shit to be physical.

I absolutely ADORE discs. You have no idea how thrilled I am that AOEIII has three discs. Are there any games with more?

~my circa 2000 copy of AE works on Vista - you sure it won't on 7?

Leto I don't understand your reasoning. According to you, it would be fine to take an empty car next to a car dealership. Why pay for something you can get for free? Well, because it's not yours to just 'take'. Just because it's easyto download and no-one will come running after you, screaming at you to give him his car back, does not make it any less of a crime to do.

I've never understood why exchanging piracy tips is such a taboo. They're going to torrent and steal regardless of the number of infractions they have on their conscience. Do you do it for the sake of appearances or is it some kind of built-in universal rule for vb?

For the record, I am far too poor to buy half of the music I like or the games I play.

Well I'm going to buy MO and SW on Steam just for the fact of having them on PC, where I can access them easily without having to set up my Xbox.

I'm buying it because I've never owned an xbox and thus never played MO or SW. Plus, it would be nice to have all four together.

Anyone know if there are gonna be graphical upgrades for SW or MO? The sytem requirements should be pretty low if there aren't any right?

i said you can google torrents, yes. did i say i was going to google torrents? it's up there bolded for you.
Anyway, I kind of agree how it's nice to have the actual cd(s), but I can see the advantages of digital distribution as well. One of them being you never have to worry about your cd getting lost/scratched/exploded by a cd-rom (this actually happened to my family's Abe's Oddysee cd ).

So I think I'm going to be buying the Odd Box when it comes out. I was going to buy the package of just the first two games, to make up for the fact that our AO cd exploded and the AE one seems to have gone for a walk up the mountains, but then having seen this thread I decided to just wait and get all four at once

Music on the other hand, while I may sometimes download songs that I've never heard before if I really like the songs on a particular album I'll usually buy the physical cd. Partly because of quality of sound and partly because there are some awesome cd cases. Though I guess you could say the same about games for the latter. Anyway, that's my ramble done

you can purchase downloads of flac albums (fully lossless audio codec) most of the time if quality is the issue.

@Daxter King: I'm very positive that there will be no graphical updates at all. that being said, even though they are old games, suspect that may be a little more resource intensive than you think, particularly SW. if you're hoping to run it on an archaic graphics card, i probably wouldn't bank on it

Honestly, I understand that Leto likes physical copies. But this is probably the only way you're gonna get it, so it's okay too.

I might have to buy SW./

Meh, me and my brother agree that games should be made open-source 10 years after the release date. Not that that would affect MO and SW. And no one has answered me yet: how much do you think they will cost? I could probably scrap together enough to pay $30 each for them, but if its more than that...


~so... I'll see when they come out this Summer ;P

Technically... not. Piracy is copyright infringement, which is brought before the courts as a civil case.

But something doesn't need to be illegal to be morally prerehensible.


EDIT: Actually, it probably is illegal, just not a crime. Blasted legal distinctions.
