[Xenon]

I was trying to remember this realy cool old game I used to play, the stickys mentioned Mobygames as a good starting point. So eventualy I found it "Sword of Aragon" by SSI on amiga and aslo DOS apparently.

It was a realy good game but it's SSI and they are Ubisoft now right? So is that ESA protected, is everything SSI protected?

It's just that they did a lot of good stuff that wouldnt sell in todays market, shame they dont offer it pay-per-download.

LOL, found it and downloaded about 10 mins later, can I post the link or will I get splattered by Titan? The page has loads of ads so prob no but I typed 'SSI download Sword of Aragon' into google and it was off a link on the first page of results.

SSI merged with another company that it quickly turned out was on the verge of bankruptcy: smart move! So both went under, and Ubisoft bought up all the assets. That's a huge backlog of games, most of which they will never touch, again. (SSI's DOS catalog goes back to the early 1980s, and included more than 100 titles at one time.)

Heh well NM, the game it realy too basic, not like I remembered. I'm sure it's a classic but it's just a bit too retro. Shame, with an updated interface it could be realy playable, it would probably work on a palmtop as is though.

I remember hearing something about SSI games being considered abanonware a while ago.

Ask Kosta to make it clear, though.
