A few days ago I was going through my old CDs looking for a backup copy of a project I'd worked on a few years back when I came across a stash of obsolete games, including Total Annhilation, Command and Conquer, Tank Racer and Duke Nuke'em. With some help from a friend I got Total Annhilation to work fine on Windows XP, but the others did not.

A quick google search lead me to DosBox, a wonderful open-source DOS emulator designed to make it possible to play old games on new operating systems and then a search for help with tuning DosBox lead me to Abandonia, an on-line warehouse of obsolete video games. These are the games that were the best sellers 15 years ago and it's nostalgic to boot them up now.
