View Full Version : archived/out of print games
this lady archives old games that are not otherwise available for sale n such. sometimes peeps tell her to take them down because she is infringing on intellectual property. she says that she's not, cuz they don't sell the games anymore anyways...so who gives a flying rat turd.

Hehe, I'm not after the article, I'm after the games! hehe :P
That's funny, I found out about The Underdogs about 2 weeks ago. My friend and I stayed up till 6 am downloading all our old favorites and playing them. Great stuff.

Abandonware at its finest. :)
Nice find there..... I'm sure I'll find a few classics (such as LOOM -- the first CD-ROM based game I ever played... if I'm thinking of the same title).
[edit]
Sadly though, my favorite pastime from days gone by doesn't work on XP. I'm referring to the game "Stunts" (a.k.a. "4D Sports Driving"). THAT game was awesome back in the day.
