    Default Software Requests

    Hey admin, how about having a sticky thread which takes in requests for software in the cds?
    I mean only large software are in the by demand, what about the rest.
    Also it might be a good idea to get rid of the funzone in playware and start a retro section which features games released before lets say 2001.
    I mean like half life or messiah or sin or myth or the soul reaver series....
    ie, in general which runs on a 4mb 3-d card/software renderer.
    Please please please please.....

    You're bang on target! Those funzone games suck (if you ask me), and the bigger games don't work on my PC, or I'm not interested, or run too slowly. I'm not at all interested in the funzone games, so I end up installing NOTHING from the playware CD!

    I'm for a retro games section, and also a sticky thread for software requests!

    Hi guys,
    It's for you guys that the CDs are there, so let us know what you want. Going by the current trend, all new games...good or bad, are high on system requirements. Gone are the days when you got interesting games within 1 MB disk space. Games now are not shy of demanding 1 GB space with matching memory and a server class CPU.

    The funzone section is aimed for games with low system requirements, though they may not be as action packed as the Arena games.

    So...do you want more retro/classic games?

    Cast your vote and your opinion.

    Well... you're thinking only about the extremes. I mean, there lies something between the 1 MB games and the one GB games. Your games are either for the 486 or for the latest fastest PCs! That leaves the people who don't like the funzone type of games and with PCs about 2 yrs old with nothing!

    You can include both the funzone/retro games on the CD, instead of arguing about which ones to keep. How about a new subforum exclusively for software requests?

    Well basically i try out the Arena games as i have the required hardware,having upgraded recently.Also i don't see the funzone games that often.I would really like to see mods that are freely available to be on the cd,like Day of defeat...for half life etc.

    The Funzone games suck big time. They are a total waste of space. In fact, it would be more fun if you could select a particularly popular game - like UT2003, Q3Arena or Q3TA, etc and provide a lot of mods. Now THAT I'm sure will be highly appreciated by ALL.

    Enjoy!

    I think the no. of mods that are released fro various games and what we get in the digit cds have a "zameen aasmaan ka difference".No. of mods definitely needs to be increased.
