afraid i'd have to totally disagree there joe, just definitions sure, but you've patched stuff yourself.. you know theres a lot more to 'no-cd ing' something than going the 'easy' route and using disk emulation software (some of which, has triggers, which makes it look like the game is working.. then... u hit a level and cant continue...)... maybe call it 'no-cd via emulation' otherwise you'll have a ton of crackers giving you crap heh
