I came across this site recently when searching for older games to download.

http://shadowplay.dudcore.net/l33t/

Any suggestions as to which ones are worth trying?

I must admit that "Fuck Quest" was the first that caught my eye, but I didnt want to download it while at work.

I used to play Xenon on an acorn computer about 5 years ago and it was pretty fun. Its a downwards scrolling space shooter thingy.

"Buzz Aldrin's Race Into Space!" I've never played it, but with a title like that it's hard to go wrong.

There's some pretty recent games up there (relatively speaking), but I suppose most of them are stripped of anything but their basic sound effects. I'm gonna see what comes up with that Double Trouble ISO, Broken Sword 1 and 2 and some others.

Damn, I'm seeing all kinds of games I've been looking for. Thanks for the link. Hope they're fairly complete.

abandonia is a good one too. They update all the time and they also fix all the games they put up for play on xp. Nice of them.

I think I either contributed to killing this site's bandwidth, or they locked me out somehow for downloading some 50-80 MB games. :( I can't reach it anymore. Though I did get a few nice, complete games.

Double Trouble, yay! It's not a great game, but I've been looking for it for years and BY GOD I'll enjoy it now that I have it. It's even got Rik Mayall doing a voice part.

Wow, Broken Sword is pretty. But it looks like the speech files and possibly the opening cutscene were ripped to conserve space. I think I'll see if I can cheaply pick this game up on amazon.
