DARKWOLF2054 Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Hey everyone. Just wanted to share a web site I came across a couple of days ago called Abandonia @ http://abandonia.com/. It specializes in no longer licensed games for PC, C-64, and some other systems. The site apparently has been around for a long time…I had never heard of it. They have a huge collection of games; I was looking for the super hyper realistic graphics of WASTELAND in anticipation for the new slightly upgraded graphics of Fallout 3. After that I found and downloaded other games like Tyrian, Bloodnet, Blackthorne, Alone in the dark, Ultimas (most of them), I mean they have a lot of the oldie goldies. They also have a collection of retro emulators that will let you use the games with out a hitch (sound and all) on new systems; for example DOSBOX. If you can’t tell, I am super excited about the site. Enjoy! By the way you may want to get a camera before playing these games with your friends and family who are say 25 years old or younger. My daughter has played Fallout 1 and 2, as well as Brotherhood of Steel with me…Her face was something to see when I excitedly shared all the greatness of Wasteland with her. Oddly, this may be the only Falloutish game I will complete by myself . Darkwolf2054 Quote

webjockey Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 When I was exploring this kind of thing I used Abandonia (I am not actually old enough to remember the DOS days) Quote
Taulmarill Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 When looking for this old stuff, just google Abandonware. There is a ton of sites out there filled with it. The aforementioned Home of the Underdogs is my personal favorite tough. Quote
