Don't worry, you can find Tyrian at a lot of non-linkable sites . As for games I'd like to see become freeware.....
Commander Keen 1-6 + Dreams, Duke Nukem 1 & 2, Raptor: Call of the Shadows, Strife, Jazz Jackrabbit (I think they're still bringin' in a lot o' dough with this one though), Stunts, Warcraft, and TIM (The Incredible Machine), Scorched Earth. |

| But that doesn't matter! OMF 2097 was turned to freeware when they were even making money off of it. Just send everything!! |

DOOM I AND II - No. They are making Doom 3, you will never get it turned to freeware if they are making a new one.
Warcraft- no, same reason.
Jazz Jackrabbit - If they are making money off it still, then there is no chance.
And al of you, i would like the company names and website if possible. As much info as possable would be easier. |

most companys do not sell those games anyways. There is a third-party sdite that sells them. The link is put up by the company, but they are totaly unrelated.
P.S. OMF 2097 is WAY older than jazz jackrabbit |
