The search for obscure game entries online is always very entertaining detective work.

It's crazy how many 90s-early 2000s entries have been basically forgotten and just keep on reappearing because someone finds some old magazine or shareware CD with a bunch of random stuff on it.

But if they get to keep some of the improvements and managed to clear up the key situation, that's a win.

One big corporation I have no love for swallowing another I feel the same way about.

Since I (mostly) care about indies nowadays anyway, they can eat each other up all they want.
