The Dink Network

Interesting that you should mention horses, since going back to medieval times could in fact numerous world issues. However, that Dink Smallwood has survived and thrived for so long simply testifies that it is still relevant and a part of the 21st century much like Shakespeare. Furthermore, Dink Smallwood has influenced several "modern" games and statistically, a majority of X-boxs don't last 14 years.

Now consider that Dink Smallwood had a budget of a few hundred dollars and contrast that with the triple-A industry that you are controlled by. Triple-A games simply don't last for fourteen years without a sequel.
