Interesting you wrote that comment about piracy, people getting exposed to a particular game, and people electing to buy it after having seen it or experienced it. The reason this is all interesting is because of the comment that I dropped in to make.
Now you know I generally like to collect classic versions of games for the original machine or at least obtain a port to a nicer machine from the similar era. An example of this would be picking up Sword of Fargoal for the Commodore 64 rather than the VIC-20. Gaming on original hardware is just my thing.
That said, watching Matt Chat 40 made me immediately say "ahh what the heck," pick up my iPhone, and purchase Sword of Fargoal! So good job getting the word out, a special thanks to Jeff McCord, and what do you know but someone else has picked up the game.
I haven't picked up any games for my iPhone that really keep me occupied save for a free Sudoku - which isn't much. Sword of Fargoal seems like a game that can keep me occupied when the need arises. It just seems like a game that is my kind of genre and that would work well on iPhone.
Thanks again, Matt. That is +1 purchase of Sword of Fargoal from someone that would have otherwise had no clue of what he was missing had it not been for Matt Chat.
