Alright, that last post about Argentum was by me. That statement was completely false, and I decided it would be just plain CRUEL to let it go. I made it up.<br><br>Anyway, I am having problems with PocketMatrix now. all the stuff that was new yesterday is still NEW. I can't make it go away.<br><br>Furthermore, everytime I want to post, I have to type in my name and email addy.<br><br>Maybe I should go delete the cookie and see if it fixes itself.

That was pretty funny randall. This looks like such a gip for developers there is no way this one is legal. They had like 100's of games for 16 bucks.

Looks they added a disclaimer of sorts, I am not sure if that has always ben available on the site or not.<br><br>Anyway, it states that these are only demos/freeware/shareware of the games. But they obviously didn't ask for permission to use those demos in a gamepack like that.<br><br>I think I would be pretty ticked to find my game among those listed, if I had no knowledge of its use.<br><br>A few of those games are by people around here "Weeboo, Peters Gamebox, Lemmings, PocketQuake"<br><br>lol... this disk even includes POCCER!<br><br><br>

What's the problem with distributing other peoples demos? Because they're charging for it?

I don't remember that disclaimer being there eather. So if it's only demos, what's the harm?

Yeah, Peter comes in here occasionally.<br><br>Dunno. Ask all the developers around here how they feel about a company like this making money off them, without their consent.

Shouldn't be charging for a demo...it's not right.<br><br>Intellectual Property is just that, I should think only the originator has the right to charge.

They'll say that buy selling the demo they'll increase the chance of somebody buying the game.<br>Lame excuse, I know.
