It's a decent site for to find some old PC games with zero effort but it's not perfect. Sometimes it's missing shit or there's problems with the rips. Like 99% of the time it's fine though.

Was this the one that didn't let you download certain games unless you fucked around in the developer console?

Most DOS games are incomplete rips

it's meant to suggest that a donation of $2 or $3 is a fine amount and would not be thought of as cheap on the part of the recipient

The catch is that everything on it used to be free but now a lot of pages just direct you to Steam so you can buy the game from them.

>> No.6730361

>>6730342
Yeah, if a game gets popular enough there someone will probably just start trying to sell it so it's no longer considered abandonware. Still a lot of decent games there though.

It's mildly annoying but it's still a good compromise.

You often can't select ega, cga, vga etc and often the sound card options are removed. In other games in my case Dr Radiaki the game kept asking for a disk in a drive. Most of the time they work but many times its far inferior to having all the original files.
