Re: ANNOUNCEMENT: SOPA, PIPA, MEGAUPLOAD, AND THE FUTURE OF THE FORUMS
If and when Hotfile closes up shop, it's going to be a REAL challenge to find old and semi-old games on the net. Chances are those games will be lost to history. Or until someone that has it uploads it again.
I've been on a hunt for a few year-old games, not particularly popular games, but games that were on most hentai-game sites. And, since almost everyone made a habit of using the same four filehosters, the games are virtually lost. I had to keep looking and looking until finally someone choice to use something different. More often than not, that different-host wouldn't be one that keeps files long-term. So...
Anyway, what I discovered is, Hotfile is pretty good. There's talk that the US government is about to pull the same thing on it, so once that goes, we're talk about all the 'old' popular file servers drying up. I suspect trouble times ahead, but I'm hoping to download most of the files from (at least) Hotfile while they're still there--yeah, time consuming.
Anyway, back to searching and saving...
