Has anyone used this website?

No, not one of those websites.

Anyone used this site to download from? This being URL REMOVED . It seems to be too good to be true, so I wondered if anyone's used it and what they think?

I am looking to sign up to a download site purely for some old games, and as Ebay is becoming too much of a hassle, sites like this seem a good idea.

Re: Has anyone used this website?

I strongly suspect it will be a waste of time and I would be wary, this model has been done to death now , software, games, sex, you name it.

You'll pay then you'll be given a link to a load of P2P style sites or loads of demos blah blah..It will be illegal, whatever they say.

Their main gig will be giving you some kind of client side application to search P2P sites, which no doubt will probably also put a ton of shizz on your PC, that you never wanted.

Hope that helps.

Steam's an entirely different ballgame interms of what it offers past just downloads, but absolutely 100% legit yes.

Cheers all. I think the word 'avoid' is flashing up here.

MOD COMMENT

i've closed this thread and deleted the link as i don't think the site offers legal downloads. according to the terms you are paying them for tech support to access files via p2p
