Back in 1997, on the old show, we used to look at Shareware games in a segment called "Shareware Dimension". Back then, Shareware games were everywhere, and you'd pay a pretty reasonable price to get the full version of the game and enjoy its extra features, levels, characters, etc.

Lately, Shareware has taken a back seat. What's in its place? Games that people start, but never finish. I'm finding a lot of that these days, but I'm also finding finished games I would like to review in a regular game review. But let's focus on those unfinished games.

I can't call this segment "Abandonware Universe" like I wanted to, cause Abandonware means software or games that aren't sold or produced anymore.

So what I want to do for the 4th season is much like the Shareware Dimension of the old show. Look at 1 or 2 games or demos that people started, but never completed, and never will (for whatever reason).

All I need is a title to get started. I would like to air this segment in October, 2009.

Any suggestions?

Post here, or e-mail the segment name to
