b00tl3g kr3w is a free game about pirating software in the '90s
http://www.pcgamer.com/b00tl3g-kr3w-is-a-free-game-about-pirating-software-in-the-90s/
When my family first got a modem for our 486 it took us a while to figure out that, with this modem, it was possible to acquire software for free. But once we made this discovery, we went at it hard: setting up downloads that could sometimes take weeks in order to get our hands on [redacted]. The fact that, most of the time, these downloads wouldn't work, or they'd be riddled with viruses, was almost part of the fun.
Anyway, this free itch.io game b00tl3g kr3w is a harkening back to that era. You play as a pirate and must collaborate with other pirates in order to upload cracked games including riffs on Mario and Sonic. It's not a long game, but it's a nice little period piece and it's created by the guy behind Shower With Your Dad Simulator. So you know it's going to be good. It's very funny.

Red Dead Redemption 2 being one of the most hunted games for news has perhaps copped a small blow as Rockstar’s parent publisher Take-Two says it believes in the PC market but doesn’t know if Red Dead Redemption 2 will be on it.

>>Given how Take Two/Rockstar have treated PC gamers in the recent years, this won't surprise. What surprises me is that no one has made a thread about this yet, given how eager are some users on this site to throw sh!t to PC gaming.
