Not quite I seen a post the otherday some dickhead posted the full link and it was FRONTPAGE I will be honest I was going to come back and get the link but mods etc took it away.

Wishful thinking I guess because now I can get it Officially from Wave.
That is the result of a Free Image circulating why would anyone want to pay when it Free.

£30 Retail Case - £20 Digital seems reasonable to me via Wave now get everyone else on board like those JoshProds and Intepid Izzy but that and the Shadow Gangs Collectors look very tempting.

I would like to make some Software for Dreamcast maybe couple Game ideas floating in my head and this shit is discouraging I watched Dev interview for Postal on Gamesreup with Dan and Ian.

This is a small scene with a small group of dedicated, impoverished devs - pirating these games is a low blow. I'll be honest Shadow Gangs isn't my cup of tea game wise but I'll be buying a digital copy at the end of the month. Don't confuse that with some kind of a charity donation - if people want more games then they should back the devs and publishers by laying money down or contributing via the likes of patreon or kickstarter to the devs and their projects.

Kickstarter does help get the ball rolling, but it also imposes many obligations on devs, who often still have to invest a lot of their own time and money. In my experience, resellers (as well as most, but not all publishers) invest only a fraction of what I as a dev do. So I respectfully disagree with your analysis.
Appreciate the feedback from a published dev.

So Ian is a hypocrite?

Ian please stop making Software and taking credit for it and then pirating your own software and going on a rant and then deleting the evidence?

LOl I think some wires are crossed here Ian looks like a genuine Master Yoda or a Jedi Dreamcast Coder which includes honor amongst Devs. NOT THEIVES! He works his ass off from what I have seen via his own vids and a good voice for singing I might add.

Please dont Alienate one of the Legendary and few Dreamcast Devs we have left f***sake.
The whole point of Ians Rant in first place.
