Yeah, I found it thanks. For some reason I was seeing it on the repo although, I already have it. Does anyone have the full game files? I only found the demo version through search. I haven't tried it yet.

You need to buy the game.

 

[milkshake]

There is here [Removed] don't know if it's legal or not, Prometheus?

 

[Prometheus]

It's not... So, if you don't mind, I've removed it.

 

[milkshake]

is it not? sorry, how do you know whether it truly is abandon-ware or not? or is that still illegal?

 

[Prometheus]

Well, there's actually no such thing as "abandonware". It's not a legal term, and the "rules" surrounding it are, unfortunately, actually myths... (If you remember the old "24 hour rule" myth from ROM sites, the whole "abandonware" concept is pretty much a highly expanded version of that. )

 

[milkshake]

lol thanks for the clear up

 

[sebt3]

May I sugest to follow references #32 on the wikipedia article about Warcraft ?

 

[Prometheus]

@milkshake - No problem. I clarified it a little more, but it seems that the forum doesn't automatically mention/show posts that are made while you're editing, as it sometimes does when you're replying. :lol:


@sebt3 - I'm not too sure about that one... Seems a bit sketchy to be linking to that cite-note...

[Askarus]

I never tried out that game on Pandora.

Does anyone know where I can buy a digital copy of Warcraft Orcs & Humans?

 

[mcobit]

I had an old CD of it from an ancient magazine called Bestseller Games

My guess is that you have to rely on ancient technology (CD-ROM)

My guess is that you have to rely on ancient technology (CD-ROM)

CD-ROM is merely old, floppy disks are ancient technology.
