      I don't know what the thread is about, but old games are just...old

      I tried playing Wasteland again as I have never finished that game. I couldn't get past the scropitron in Las Vegas back when I was playing it on my C64. . the save feature is the really annoying thing about that game. That is why I never finished it after installing the PC version on my computer

        Jamski has the link, possibly, but he rated that site as well under the quality of another similar site that we can't mention.

              Go home, that defeats the purpose, we want someone here that saw the site to tell us how it is.

                I saw the site in question and it was well below standard. Its probably one of the sites that get attacked for linkstealing from another site that can't be mentioned, even though that other site is within the law since it now has a policy of asking the software companys if its ok to host the files or not, as a result of which many downloads were removed.

                That's what I heard anyway

                  So it has changed its policy from removing if asked to explicitly asking up front?

                    If what Jamski says is true we should be allowed to speak the name of the forbidden once again!!

                      With any new additions, yes.

                        Ah ok, so the rule wont be changed here if their policy change only includes new additions.

                          There has been much discussion on details like that. The general concensus is since it very difficult to know if permision has been recieved for EVERY game available, the management has decided not make any exceptions.
                          While you could probably petition for a specific site that has truely gotten permision for every game to be OK to have the link posted, I wouldn't hold your breath.
                          It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

                            Yeah, which kind of defeats the purpose of them asking up front. Although I guess they didn't have "linking from Poly" in mind when they changed policy.

                            EDIT: Looking through the site's FAQ, they mention they still support abandonware, so no linking from Poly. Alas.
