So do I cancel my plans of doing FFVII for the time being?

Yeah,  ESA protected games get marked as Wares on the main site.  You've probably gotten one message on there already about an upload being wares.

where can we find the complete list protected game by ESA .. LINKS !!

I've split all the other posts relating to lost points into its own topic in Site Problems.  Let's keep this one for ESA protected games okay?  Thanks.
http://forum.classic-gaming.net/viewtopic.php?t=1819

PhiL666:  I haven't found a full list of games protected, just companies protected by the ESA.  That link is here:
http://www.theesa.com./about/esa_members.php

I'd love to see a full list of games protected by the ESA though downloaders will hate it as we'd end up removing a ton of games files.

I don't get it. Is every game made by the companies on the ESA list eventually going to be flagged as warez and removed? That's a huge chunk of games already on the site. I would at least leave the titles on the site in protest. If the ESA sends a letter threatening legal action remove them, if it sends a letter.

Not all games of all ESA members are still protected.

The Entertainment Software Association (ESA) is the U.S. association exclusively dedicated to serving the business and public affairs needs of companies that publish video and computer games for video game consoles, personal computers, and the Internet. ESA members collectively account for more than 90 percent of the $7 billion in entertainment software sold in the U.S. in 2005, and billions more in export sales of U.S.-made entertainment software.

The ESA offers a range of services to interactive entertainment software publishers including a global anti-piracy program, business and consumer research, government relations and intellectual property protection efforts.  ESA also owns and operates the Electronic Entertainment Expo.
