Kind of dumb considering its a 10yr old game.......

If a PC version was available, no one would bother to try to do it......

The way a greedy company sees things though is that a PC RDR1 could potentially make them money - so they see a community modded version available for free, as "stealing their money" - even if they have no intentions of making that money in the first place.

Absolutely insane psychopathic thinking ... but that's they way them and their lawyers see it ... because they are insane psychopaths - as most of the media industry is run by ... there's literally hundreds of examples of this.

I remember when Trent Reznor wanted to created a free album for NIN fans to be used by fan artists and other artists as samples, reworking, remixing, or just listening to. His label threatened to sue him for it because in their eyes, it was "their money" he was throwing away. He waited until the contract ended, dumped them, then released it anyway

This is the way the corporate world works folks ... millions of dollars is never, ever enough ...
