I have been seeing some oldschool PC games pop up in the PSN Store, so I want Bethesda to jump on board with Arena and Daggerfall :-) I still have my Arena instruction booklet... the game is somewhere but no old PC to play it on... no PC ATM anyhow... So yea... put em on PSN.

They lost the source code, so they can't.

How the hell do you lose source code? That is depressing.

They said they lost it when changing offices. Sounds stupid, I know.

Doesn't make sense to me TBH... I mean you can lose a floppy disk, a thumb drive, a CD... But how do you manage to lose every hard drive it may have been on? I know talking about it is not going to change anything... but that... blows my mind.

I am still finding art files and stuff from when I was in school for it and that was 12 years ago... If you backed up your stuff correctly you cannot possibly even get rid of it :-P

That relies, of course, on properly and thoroughly backing things up. Those two games were from when, as the company's name implies, they were based in Bethesda, Maryland; since then they moved to their current location in Rockville, Maryland. (which is a bit further out, enough to put them outside the D.C. Beltway)
