I was reading time magazine, and i saw an ad-- Gametap.
Is this really what it advertises? I looked at their website, but i don't really get it-- they are actually making emulation LEGAL?!

if its tru,e thats really great-- i'll finally get to play the legendary games i missed out on cuz im a pc gamer.

you have to pay though, when u could just get a emu and the rom for free from someplace else...

Yes but I think the point he is getting at is the fact that if it is legalized, then the scene will explode and there will be ALOT more titles emulated on PC than before, and will be alot more reliable and easy to find.

Actually ther are Snes titles, and I saw some video clips of someone playing tomb rader for ps, tony hawk, and some other n64 titles. So... Yeah..
