general rule of thumb , any game made before 1993-94 chances are they are DOS games .

when you look at a game you can 99% tell if it's a DOS game or not.
I mean they do use a special window for them... :whistle:

alllllll right ... :ranting:

but if you are not sure if you played your ancient favourite on your old amiga or c-64 or even c-16 it would - maybe - a small help. well of course you can look at mobygames ... but when you have these old wooden modems and do not want to spend too much time online you can just download that list ... and

you're right - I am wrong. let's forget about this post.
