Well, at least I can say that X-Wing and/or Tie-Fighter will not be hosted here, being fiercly protected. Unfortunately.

And duke nukem 3d won't be.

or will be, when duke nukem forever comes out.

also dark forces (basically anything with starwars theme) is a no-no.

I guess it's safe to say anything that has a LucasArt or LucasFilm logo on it is a live grenade for Abandonia.

You would do wise to read the rules before posting a request.
And of course use the search function.
Several of the games you have requested have popped up very frequently in the past.

Also, you seem to misunderstand what do we define as Abandonware on this site - again, please refer to the rules sticky, as it contains the definition.
Most of the games you requested are not legitimate additions for Abandonia, either because they are still sold or protected by the copyright owners.

The following classify as Abandonware:
Epic - ABANDONWARE
Robocop 3 - ABANDONWARE
Chuck Yeager's Advanced Flight Trainer - ABANDONWARE
Chuck Yeager's Advanced Flight Trainer 2.0 - ABANDONWARE
System Shock - ABANDONWARE
Magic Carpet: Hidden Worlds - ABANDONWARE (is it a standalone game or an addon? If standalone, then we can host it. If it requires the basic Magic Carpet to run, it's a no go)
Magic Carpet 2 - ABANDONWARE

The following may change their status come January 1st:
Comanche: Maximum Overkill - PROTECTED (may change on January 1st due to 15-year period)
Stunt Island - PROTECTED (may change on January 1st due to 15-year period)

The following are still sold or protected:
Indycar Racing - SOLD
Chuck Yeager's Air Combat - PROTECTED
X-Wing vs TIE Fighter - SOLD
rest of X-Wing series - PROTECTED
TIE Fighter (Collector's CD-Rom) - SOLD
rest of TIE Fighter series - PROTECTED
Magic Carpet - SOLD
Dark Forces - SOLD
Duke Nukem 3D - SOLD (3D Realms - former Apogee - are selling all their old games)
Space Simulator - PROTECTED (what did you expect? it's Microsoft!!!)
Flight Simulator - PROTECTED
Inferno - SOLD
Slipstream 5000 - SOLD
Bolo series - SOLD
Fade to Black - SOLD
Heart of Darkness - SOLD

Finally, please do not make multiple requests like that. It's really troublesome for us to keep track of them.

I thought I was being convenient to limit my requests/suggestions to one post. I'll consider making seperate threads for each game next time, if you want.

My intention of this post is that I want to see at least screenshots/information of certain games (not downloads). F.I. Inferno/System Shock are classified as 'classics' in my book, and yet I can't find anything about it (nor anywhere else). And I don't really care whether it is still being sold or protected or not (I've seen screenshots with other games that are protected/sold which I am able to find here - or I'm missing something here). Anyways, thanks for the info so far.

What you are missing is that the games you're talking about were once downloadable.
Generally, we don't add reviews for games we can't put up for download.

If you think that a particular game was notable enough to warrant a review despite it a protected/sold status, please talk to Kosta whether he would make an exception in that specific case.
