Which games should be released for free?

Recommended Posts

I have an original CD version, but even though I tried my damndest, I couldn't get it to work under XP in a satisfactory manner (IE: with movies and full audio at full speed).

There is an XP patch available.

I think it would be cool if Beyond Good and Evil was released for free. The game is selling for shit anyway, and it would get alot of people to play it, thus increasing the chances for a sequel. In fact, I feel that most games that don't sell well should be released for free after a time. What differece does it make?

For SS1? I know there's one for SS2 (although I've heard of people having mixed results with that).

I tried to run SS1 using DOSBox, Win95 compatibility mode, every possible workaround I found on VOGONS and lots more before giving up.

I could get some things to work, but not everything, and I'm really anal about having the gameplay experience be exactly what the developers intended (yes, I'm an idiot).

I actually meant for download when I posted this. IMO, it should be when games are 10 years old, UNLESS there are ACTIVE plans to remake it/rerelease it, like nintendo did with the mario and zelda game for GBA.

Also, IMO the original versions should be included with sequels/remakes if the orignal is more than 5 years old.
