what a waste of $1000
:-(
basically if it's abandonware they probably won't sue for copyright so they wouldn't give a stuff, but EA might be greedy bastards about it
i would try and check with EA themselves if you could to make sure because they still own the copyright to it but might not care if you did something with it
so basically you might be able to do it for free depending on if they care about it anymore
yeah but i dont have the source code for the game. thats the main reason for purchasing the rights for a game, you get the code behind it. without that i cant do anything to the game
i would expect ea to be greedy and ask for like a gajillion dollars for their hot franchise but going over 1000 for a game is absurd. who knows they probably could give it for like 100 dollars if they didnt care about it anymore.
what im worried about is that some cool games like re-volt got bought already but nfs 1 didnt. and its a pretty famous game, it probably made more sales than re-volt. it might not be bought by someone already because ea probably asked for way too much
