Hi,
This certainly doesn't happen for mainstream gaming unless you go to
various pirate sites. Why would the developers keep old stuff? Whilst I

We do need a site where some of the abandonware can be put up.
Some of the games you mention can be got from the soundrts site
indirectly, as the german downloads site that stores one of the
