You rule
 

So its time to tell you all at Abandonia how mutch you rock!!

It all started a few weeks ago,went and bought myself a brand new PC,and a bunch of "new" games.While playing i started thinking about the good old days,sitting at my Amiga 500.....(it allmost made some tears come out)

Anyhow,I just checked a few sites and finally found this site.And I was stunned.All these great games,in one place.Then i decided to download DosBox and try some oldies.Your easy explenation of how to set up DosBox was a dream come true.10 min intro it and i was back to 1990.Hearing the into for speedball 2 was a great feeling.....

So a BIG thanks to all of you at Abandonia for making a 25 year old become 9 years again,keep up the good work and i hope all good things come to you!

Cheers

Why thank-you :max: For me it was playing Alley Cat again. Like on the old XT. :3:

Ha, nineties. Nineties were yesterday, and you all youngsters had fancy 256 colors when we had monochrome monitors like the hercules or 4 colors best forgotten with a CGA. Those were the days! Youngsters these days don't know nothing :old:


Just joking :p. I can't remember which was the first abandonware game I downloaded, but I think it was Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders. How I love well done pc speaker music :). Both Sierra and LucasArts had some great tunes that sound good even today.

Also, welcome to the site, and I hope you find the community useful!

You are welcome :hello:, always nice to see that someone appreciate what we do :)

I have always been interested in games i played since i was 3 o.O
