Why are Old Skool Games' issues on torrent sites when you can get them in the official site?

I won't post the torrent site for obvious reasons.

Perhaps to save Zach's site some bandwidth? If they leave them unaltered, I don't really see a problem.

*edit: As promised, news posted on RomShare and OldFartGames :)

I had money problems a few months ago and began seeding the Issues myself for a while. I'm paid up until next October now though, so it's not a big concern. I've got plenty of bandwidth now also, about 2.5 TB a month, but there is nothing wrong with people torrenting as long as it is unmodified.

It's not a commercial product and no one makes money off it, so the more readers the merrier. I think it's an honor to be torrented, I know someone was doing it when I was back in Maryland last June.

Zach! :excl: I have a question for your Old School Games?
Do we need any Emulator to play Old School Games?:(

All games require an emulator. But I don't distribute games, so that doesn't bother me much.

My PDF requires Adobe Acrobat 7 or better.

I don't give out games.. It's a -Magazine-. OSG reviews games and publishes them in a PDF. That's all we do. All the sections are marked by system, so if you see a game you like just download an emulator for that system from the main emulator-zone web site and go find the ROM through google or something like that.. And no we cannot and won't tell you where to find them. It's against the rules.
