Actually, Discworld Noir is sold out.
So it's protected (until 2010 ), not sold.

Mr. Back Alley Ska reminded me of this series. Are these games abandoned/ESA protected? I heard they were pretty fun, and I've read all of Terry Pratchet's books. It would be fun to play the games.

thanks dude...I was too busy to go search for it myself, I was about to leave for my Madrigal Ensemble. <sigh> I guess HOTU will have to do. I suppose I can set it up to download over night because their connections are so slow.

They're not abandoned, though HotU might have some permissions. There's a possibility of DW becoming freeware though, apparently.

What I heard, mind you this is from rumors, that HoTU DID get permissions, and thats why they have the entire series for download, rather than one or two.

Officially, they're not abandonware yet. However, there's supposedly a deal between the developers, Terry Pratchett and the ScummVM team so that ScummVM will be able to run DW1&2, and the games will then become freeware.
