No. Unless the owner grants license it is illegal. It doesn't matter if

the game is for sale anymore or not.

i

know what you mean, bavisoft. but we can't buy the games anymore can we?

and those who still want to play the games and not the demos the only chance

to get them is to crack them isn't it?
well they can always do like self

destruct they can get a keygen in the game so someone who still wants to

play the full versions can use it. well, nothing about this may be true, its

just my oppinion. i don't care what they do, but i would like to play the

full version of mb or something so i cant do it now

Well maybe it isn't proper but I know I would have loved to play (i even

tried to buy) pinball extreme. If anyone wants to give there key I'm

We haven't heard anything from this company and

I'm sure we won't again unless someone buys the rights. I think that's

been done before hasn't it? I can't quite... uh... Yeah it has!

This is one of the reasons people should purchase something they want, for

there is no guarantee that it will be available in the future.

An

example: Disney Corporation releases videos for a limited time and after

that they are unavailable. It is not legal, moral, or ethical to pirate a

Disney Video simply because it is unavailable for purchase.

Hey,

are you still able to buy from Adora? What happens if you try?

Just

wanted to make it clear, I was in no way trying to say that I wanted a

cracked version/key to MB. Only saying that I want a chance to play it in

its entirety. Whether that comes in the form of abandonware later down the

road, or having to buy it if/when Adora's back on its feet, I don't

care.
I shamefully admit to having played a cracked game or two in the

past, but I felt bad about it and don't think I'd ever do it again.

I

can assure you that had funds been available I'd have purchased Alien

Outback. Unfortunately at the last time the company was still up I didn't

have  the funds. I also was at school so I couldn't have installed in on

any computers (my personal one was and is still dead), so I lost my

opportunity. Unfortunately the demo I had on the computer I'm using had

expired long before I returned home, by which time Adora was---well I don't

wanna say dead, but it's whatever it is. So what happens if the games

become abandonware? That's not a term with which I'm familiar. Do they

just remove the demo limitations?

Don't call me that. I was

just wondering.

That's if they even reply to you. I wrote to them at the first opportunity

and have heard nothing since, well over a month ago. So I'm guessing no.

Guess we're left in the dust until such time as we hear differently.
 

And Bavisoft, I'm jost going to point out that even once Disney Corporation

makes their videos unavailable you can still find nonpirated copies if you

know where to look. Places like Amazon.com often carry used copies. Granted

I don't know if that's truly legal but still...I just thought I'd mention

it. Of course the situation is different here. You're not likely to find

Alien Outback on Amazon.com, or if you do it'll be something totally

different (hehh hehh).

I'm a

little cheesed off because I only just found the demos for pinball and ten

pin alley, then within a week or two Adora went... whatever.

I strongly

suspect there isn't even anyone checking email there anymore.
