Hi all,
BSC was a pioneer in the early days of accessible audio games for modern
platforms. There are a handful of companies and developers without whom the
industry would not exist as it does today, and Justin is one of those.
I'm disappointed, but not really surprised, to see some of the sentiments
being batted around on list. Essentially, like always, everyone wants
something for nothing, and never mind the time, effort or trouble that
Justin
put into the games over the past dozen years, whether or not he has
released
anything new recently. The shortsightedness of the community is to its
detriment.
Kids won't be kids forever. Perhaps Justin is reserving the right to
return to creating and/or updating these games eventually, when his kids
are
grown. Perhaps he just wants to be fairly compensated for the hours he
spent
developing them in the first place. Whatever his reasons or movations, I
have no doubt that some of you will pirate the heck out of these games
without
a thought to their creator.
Should Activision give away the Infocom collection for free? Should
Nintendo allow anyone to make clones of NES or SNES cartridges of the old
Super
Mario Brothers Games? Maybe Paramount should give up the rights to Star
Trek
the Next Generation, after all, they aren't making that series anymore.
Rather than calling justin greedy for giving folks the chance to do the
right, legal, and ethical thing and purchase games they may want before
their
gone for a ridiculously reduced price, you should all be thanking him for
the hours of entertainment and enjoyment he brought to you over the years.
Personally, I'd like to thank Justin for paving the way for developers
like me to do what we love. I don't think it is him who is being greedy.
