When are we going to start taking care of the systems that make preservation possible?.What do PlayStation and RAD’s copyright owners have to lose by making the game available to anyone who wants to play it?.Currently, the only way to play it (if you don’t own it) is to shell out $200 on eBay for a sealed copy. For example, the PS2 game RAD: Robot Alchemic Drive isn’t considered a classic by any means, but it’s nonetheless a well-loved game with a bit of a cult following. After all, many of us are still playing decades-old games, and even more would like to relive our childhood by playing classics that are nowhere to be found. Many of those professionals in the gaming industry are hoping that a similar idea starts to gain steam in the gaming community. It’s a matter of cultural and historical significance, and these high-profile figures are using their cache to further the conversation.
In the last decade, you might have heard notable film directors like Christopher Nolan and Martin Scorsese talking about film preservation, and how important it is to assure that any given movie will continue to exist as close as possible to its original form.
