We should wait till there is only like 2-3 days left then re-upload it, or Pheonix, you can download the whole thing and have it on your site for ever and ever, or, King allows this big file to be on GiantsWD.org(very high chance of ''not happening''). Either way, people will be happy if one of those options come to be =)

Hay I just found out that if at least one person downloads the file, it resets the expiration date 8)

Which means it will be up alot longer than originally expected 8)

What is the point doing that when you can buy the game so cheap?

If it was hard to come by, that is another matter.. in small countries like mine or with a small city like mine it is a whole other deal.

I made copies of my orginial cds before they stopped working so im fine.

Because it's illegal, and it's a rather tacky thing to do under most circumstances. We're already bending the rules a bit by allowing you to post links on the forum. I suspect that Planet Moon is no longer making money off the game though, which is the only reason why your links haven't been removed.

Well, the fact that not alot of people knoq about giants and no one will buy it so cheap(don't know how many are left), then there is reason to do this. Besides that, like Tas said, Planet moon is not gonna make much, if not, any money off of giants(unless they somehow ''magically'' make Giants 2, which is never gonna happen). But if people start downloading the game instead of buying it, people on e-bay(customers/buyers) will not be making their $5 per copy of Giants(not that they care much anyway).

And, I would like to say thanks to King and the rest of the GiantsWD.org staff for not blocking or deleteing the link to the download =)

On top of what Tasiin said, the shipping charge costs more then the game on e-bay, which I don't want to pay.

Case and point.

Can we post the name of the site without a link?
