[ Abandonware wagon ]

www.abandonia.com Abandonware is software ( Mostly games ) wich are no longer sold, and so, they became publicly available, until the owning company, if still existing, decides so. Take idSoftware who still charges 20 bucks for the original Doom or Quake. I give 'em five bucks, and I want extras. Some games play right out of the box, but for the most part, the biggest downer of abandonware, is tha u need a bit of plumbing and tinkering with your pc and other software to make the games work. Some games that are cool and play out of the box... Just search for them in your favorite abandonware site, or google them.
  1. Turok
  2. Turok 2...
  3. ... and probably any game that has been made from 1995 to the date. I can't account for the rest, but i will...
And check http://dosbox.sourceforge.net if u want to load older games. Or better yet, some very old, popular games, have been recompiled ( adapted ) to work on winXP. Check http://www.doomsdayhq.com/ if u have the original doom and want to play it on windows. http://wiki.quakesrc.org/index.php/WinQuake if u want to play the original Quake. And if u are as sick as i am, you will want some mods, patches, bots, and everything quaker. http://www.quaketerminus.com/
