Not sure how old you are but I remember first seeing Take on Me on Top of the Pops here in the UK when it first broadcast. Just incredible.
I am 45 and yes see that video was a hit, on that time was a first for everyone. even today with all the computer magic is hard to see a breakthrough so great than the music on the 80s.

I'm not sure but I think the lightsabres in Star Wars were done the same way (rotoscoped). I think they went through several different versions of Take on Me before it was a hit. The extra effort and patience certainly paid off for them. Just found out that the video took about 16 weeks to do.

An interesting extra data: The technique of rotoscopy was invented by Jordan Mechner for the development of the original Prince of Persia 8D

Fifi La Fume Kath Soucie sounds for instance her sweet voice reminds me of younger Michael Jackson when he was a little kid.

    Thor from "Pirate Software" said its just better to pirate the game than buy from a keyshop if you care about the devs

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    devs don't get hit with the chargebacks, the keys are free to generate
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    at least on steam
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    Except he said the DEVS get hits with the chargeback cost
    +1
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    since the key gets bought with a stolen credit card
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    there's nothing to charge back because the keys don't cost them money to generate in the first place
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If the game has a crack sure
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most these crack sites have dead links anymore or the crack don't even work
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    @The Real Jdbye What don't you get? If someone use a stolen creditcard. Then sell said key on G2A. If I the dev sold the game key, I will get the charge back cost. That's how it works, it doesn't matter if I generate 300 keys if 300 of them are bought with stolen credit cards. I never said it was on Steam, but its the dev that gets hit. There is a ton of stories out there if you google it.
