I dont stop by here very often, but i have read this one as it intrests me.

I am not ashamed to say, I downloaded the game. I download loads of games.... simply because:

I dont like demos, when you have a demo you dont often get to see the full features of a game you just get some time limited thing. I like playing a full game so i can get a real feel for the game then if i like it i go down to the shop and buy the full thing or i delete it off my system and dont speak of it again!

I am happy to say i did the above with space empires 4 and starfury, apart from i ordered Online instead of walking to the shop! if anyone is intrested i can show you a picture of my sheld I have hundreds of games!

and i dont agree that 1 downloaded game = 1 lost sale simply because downloading games makes me buy them! reviews are always usually one sided and i think the only true review is playing it yourself. I wouldnt buy a game without downloading it unless i knew it was good from it being a sequel or freinds.

also simply games are expensive and no one wants to buy something if they dont know they will like it! as i said i dont mind saying i download games, but i am happy to say i also buy them!
Hey what do I care as long as people who download the game buy it. The game is so nitch that every download that does not result in a sale of the game HURTS the development process for the next game in the series because it hurts the developer.

Malfador is only 1 man and not some mega corp like Activision or Atari.
