Hello, > This is a rather serious complaint. Please react to this mail/news posting. > Although I am ofcourse aware of the copying of software, and have said > things about it before, now is as good a time as ever to talk about it. I agree with what was said about copy protection, but i think that there's one point we need to talk: some companies that write MSX games doesn't produce a demo version. I love MSX, and i would like to support MSX developers so they can write more MSX software, but i would like first to know if i will use his software. For instance, I always liked Penguin Adventure and i would like to buy a sequel or a clone of it, and i heard about Pentaro Odissey. I would like to buy it, but how can i know if it's really worth to me? In that case, i could even buy it, if i don't like it, I won't loose much money, but what about the other softwares (sonyc and others) ? I can't afford to buy every software released for MSX just to see what will fit to my needs. So please gentleman, develop with the soft a demo version so we can get it on the net and try your soft. It could have just one stage, or don't have music or savegame, whatever, but that we can see what was done. Since i won't find a demo of Pentaro on the net, someone here can make a video file (avi or other format) with some images of the game (for instance, the first stage, doesn't need to be all of it, or any other part you think it's good) and put it on the net compacted with zip or arj ? Since MSX games doesn't have 65000 or more colors, it will compact ok Well, that's it. []s Mauricio Braga. **** MSX Mailinglist.
