    My dream is an “internet archive” for all video games, modded to run offline. If the game becomes unavailable for purchase, the archive opens that game and makes it available for all.

    The next step is for this kind of release to become law, and supported by manufacturers.

      That sounds like a great plan for all types of media. We would better document our history and make so much human creativity accessible to those who cannot afford to indulge in what’s currently for sale.

      Why do we not do this? Oh wait, it’s MONEY? Pfft, it will never happen.
