ODD REQUEST? PLEASE HELP!

I have, actually, played all of them and I know they were a mish-mash of rips. The storyline was as much stolen as any fictional writing is, however, and there were images used in the games that were actually custom stuff and edits. Not the best stuff, no, but still.

If he wants to remake them, that's up to him as a developer. He's putting effort into recreating the games and making them better and custom and that shit ain't free - it's a use of time, effort, energy and money. Fair game for him if he wants to go commercial with them.

I suggest you either wait until he remakes them or try something like the way back machine/dig around on old sites in the hope of finding copies of them.
