[comp.sys.amiga.games] Lemmings HD installable

diogenes@bbs.sbs.com (Charles Bandes) (02/22/91)

Hi - I just wanted to say that I'm tired of hearing people complaining about 
HD installable games.  Fact is, if copy protection makes the companies feel 
better, and they think it'll reduce piracy, then it helps them feel better 
about their product and lets them go on with their work.  I haven't seen 
Lemmings yet, but if it's as wonderful as it sounds, then it's worth our 
money, HD or no HD, multitask or no multitask.  Of course the pirates have 
it already, but that's what they do with their lives - they seem to have 
everything months before it's released - go figure.  I'd like to see the 
?
customers support good games, and stop worrying if every program is the best 
use of the amiga that there's ever been.  (Of course, bad amiga versions, 
like Powermonger, and Ultima V really piss me off...)

	An important point: if you do buy a game, even it it turns out to be
useless, send in the registration card and let them know what sort of system
you have.  (And if there's an area for comments tell them you wished it 
supported HDs (if it doesn't.))  If you don't let them know you exist, they'll
assume you don't.
