- do you run abandon games, which you didn't played before (aka do you run "new old games")? How often compared to other oldies?

Of course, in the weirdest ways possible - for example, I like to run text-based adventure games on a C64 emulator on the J2ME environment of my mobile phone. Or games under Win3.1 emulated under DOSBox emulated under WinXP emulated on Ubuntu Linux. I like to try new games, it's just I don't have much time - but my all time favourites are adventure ones as always.

- music / graphics / story / game idea - what part of the games got generally BETTER in the new games?

The boobs. Just follow the evolution of the Duke Nukem and Lara Croft series (however, the 2012 remake of a remake of a remake Tomb Raider game will be, well, more realistic).

- Do you have some time in a year, in which you tend to play nostalgia games more?

Holidays - winter, autumn, summer, spring - doesn't matter. Well, about six months ago this special time when I only played dos games or something else was called "friday night", but now I focus on newer ones.

- Why do you play old games?

A lot of reasons - back then I had very few games, most of them 90s era stuff - then because my computer broke down, and it was never fixed again (I had to buy a new one after like 8 years). It could only run DOS games stable enough to enjoy. But then I just got hooked I guess.

I hope this was useful.
