Little BRO Rat
For those of you who remember David Moffatt's game The Omega Syndrome it is still available. It's Fallout-esque game that was known quite well at the Codex but we didn't find out about till close to the end(I still think David should of went to ALL the RPG sites). Anyways, I was going through my email and out of sheer curiousity clicked the buy link for the game in an email from David. Lo and behold it went straight to a real webpage that still offers the game.
I purchased this at about the same time that David's webpage went down. I had no problems ordering the game and downloading it. It still is $29.95 with the option of adding a few dollars to enable you to download the game as many times as you want for a year (a bit of a waste of a couple of bucks if you ask me, but if you don't have a burner or flash then it might make sense)
The Omega Syndrome webpage is still down and there will be no support with the game, but I've finished it without any major bugs.
Here's the link,

You will need the patch as well.

This still works.
Edit: You need to have Getright installed on your computer to download the patch. Make sure Web Browser Monitoring is checked.
Double Edit: The patch is now officially gone from there. Send me a PM and I'll get it to you.
Don't do what I did and apply the patch before registering the game. First download the full version, register it with the name and number sent to you from the company you bought it from and then patch it.
If your stuck in the game or just want to know more about it, you can view The Omega Syndromes archived forums at the Internet Archive. It's a bit slow but still has all the old topics and posts in the forums.
