It made me "lol" when they were talking about how in america someone who does fan work calls up Capcom(or email them... haha) and asks for some free games, and they get sent out. But the guys who worked on the game don't even get free copies, they have to get it retail. I realized, they were basically talking about us :D I feel lucky, and yet sad that they have to pay for their OWN game... haha So I was wondering, does Capcom "eat" the cost of the games that are given out for free? Or is there an allotment that Capcom is allowed to give out for contests, fan work, etc?
