One of the games I grew up playing was Silent Service. For years it disappeared, then one day GOG brought it back from the dead because they secured the rights to publish the hacked pirated copy they had been sitting on since the cold war. Without piracy, the game would have just disappeared.
This is my fault. I haven’t downloaded any premium content for my 1984 Summer Olympics game on my Apple ][c.
(Which for its time, was an amazing game)
Isn’t that one of those games that’s near impossible to find a hard copy of? I might be thinking of another one.
