Some of you might now this, but I'm part of a site dedicated to freeware games, called Abandonia Reloaded. We're always looking for interesting quality freeware games. If any of you guys know of any, please let us know.

We're also looking for reviews for games. Specific AGI-games that're still awaiting to be screenshotted and reviewed (but still lack a reviewer), are Caitlyn's Destiny and Tonight The Shrieking Corpses Bleed (to name a few) Also, a review of Nagi'd help out too.

So, if any of you guys could help, we'd greatly appreciate it.

Since this site has a link to an abandonware site, I just ignore this one.

Robin, suppose if a brother of someone you know is a serial killer. Would you stop talking to him, even though he can't be responsible for his brother's actions?
I think the site Raf linked to has a lot of potential. Ignoring it wouldn't be too smart.

Eero. I follow the message board rules. No abandonware links direct or one more click to the abandonware sites.

If this site really has potential, just remove any abandonware links on this site and I'll agree with you.

Robin, just shut up with your nonsense for a change. Reloaded can help both the AGI and the SCI community to give their games a wider audience. If you want to get that legally uptight, you shouldn't even be using the AGI or SCI format, as both're still copyrighted. Even with that, the most important sites in the scene link to sites that link to abandonware. Take AGIDev, for example. That one links to Al Lowe's site, which has some games up for download that're technically still copyrighted by Sierra. Stop going there too then, and spew nonsense 'bout it because of that. Reloaded.org's a honest site, trying to help game developers reach a wider audience and getting feedback on their games. There's absolutely nothing against that in the rules of Mega-Tokyo. If it were, half of this place wouldn't even exist, and you wouldn't be spewing your junk here. As for the affiliate, there's nobody forcing you to click any of those links. If you buy a newspaper, and the name of another paper, which you don't like, that's by the same agency's in the corner of a page, you wouldn't avoid that newspaper because of it either. At any rate, the affiliate's not even half as illegal as making and distributing games 'bout naked kids, yet that's allowed here. If you're trying to get the link to Reloaded to be taken down, you ought to take your own games down too and turn yourself in as a pedophile, or you'd be one of the biggest hypocrits alive.

robin, no offense, but bumping a 1 1/2 month old thread with the reply ' I just ignore this one' (giving it all the attention you didn't wanted it to have in the first place) doesn't seem that sane to me...

then again, making games about naked children... ::)

Always wondered... why a little girl? Why not a big-breasted woman? ???

Maybe Robin is Japanese... never mind.
We really should lock this thread, before it turns into a serious flamewar.
Robin, although I don't agree with everything Raf said in his post, I believe he has a point. I might be exaggerating, but you can access almost any site from different search engines... should we just stop linking to them? I've never seen a link deleted here because it had links to sites that are against board rules. Besides, AGI and SCI are as (il)legal as abandonware sites, if they take games down when they're requested to, and technically, even if they don't. (It's just that I haven't seen Sierra/Vivendi take any action against the scene here.)

Alright, I might exagerated this time.
