Does BYOND have way too many fan games? This especially points out to DBZ, which I see new ripped versions of ZETA almost every 2 weeks. Sure DBZ is great and all but I still perfer Zeta over all. Im not saying that we should delete all of our DBZ fan games, its just that THERES TOO MANYY!! =-(. Tell me what you think.

I speak for 90% of the forum dwellers when I say yes. Having said that, I suggest deletion of the thread, as it will go nowhere. Whee.

I dont think there are enough Fan Games. Thanks to Zeta people dont realise how good a Fan Game can be. Main Pro's of a Fan Game:
-They have a much better chance of being popular (Youve instantly got the attention of an entire group of people)
-If based on the right thing, they could bring in a lot of great potential programmers.
-When done right they can be better then the original in some ways. (Ala DWO, I would much rather play that then the NES DW games)

BYOND's problem isnt with FanGames, its with the ethics of people who use it. For every person who can see that using stolen source code is wrong, there are 20 who think its a great idea to sell/use stolen source code, icons, ect*.

*Just a guess, I have no clue what the actual ratio would be.
PS: Sorry if this <s>isnt too full of sense</s> doesnt make sense. Its a little late, and Im a little sleep. I spent around a minute trying to figure out a better way to put 'isnt too full of sense'.
