I think you are missing the point. When you see and use a common 
archival method such as gz or zip and you are asked to install a piece 
of software just to unpack one or two occasional games, some might not 
see the value in doing so.

Recently on another gamers list, someone posted a walkthrough for a text 
adventure game. They posted it in word format. A few days later he was 
asked to remove it and instead post it in plain text. This was for a 
similar reason. Not everyone uses word and not everyone wants to go and 
install a word viewer just to read a text adventure solution. This is 
a similar issue. Not everyone uses rar, this is regardless of how easy 
or how free it might be installing a compatible rar extractor.

Cheers.
