There's one thing about the site's content that has bene bothering me for a while. On the
3D shooters page, Pie in the Sky's
Lethal Tender (spelled
Legal Tender here) is listed as a freeware game. However, I haven't been able to find any confirmation of that.
The archived copies of
Pie in the Sky's website never mention
Lethal Tender being freeware or shareware, and do not have any downloads of the game. The modrn site fo the company contains the following information:
Many years ago, Pie in the Sky Software created 3D entertainment software for DOS and later for Windows. Products included
Corncob 3D - a 3D flight simulator for DOS written mostly in 16bit 8086 assembler.
Lethal Tender - a 3D First Person Shooter for DOS sold in retail stores.
The Game Creation System - A set of software tools for creating first person 3D games with no programming. [

A
more detailed account of the company's history also suggests that
Lethal Tender was a commercial game sold in stores. Also, it was released before the public versions of Pie in the Sky's 3D game Creation System.
I've just checked the
Lethal Tender archive from the site, and it certainly can't be an original release, freeware or not. It also does not contain any license information, or any official information at all (not even a file_id.diz), making it very unlikely to be an official, legal release.
I'd suggest removing the file, just to be on the safe side.
On the other hand, there is known to be a demo of
Terminal Terror, the sequel to
Lethal Tender. Would be nice to add it to the site but so far I'v been unable to locate a copy.
Here's today's additions:<br>
