Do they have licenses for any of this stuff? I mean, Id/Bethesda still sells Doom 1, you can’t really call these “abandonware” by the normal definition. They’re just “really old”.
Doom is just the shareware version, just like most of the others (some already called with that fancy modern name “demo”). Some are freeware, some have been released into public domain after they went out of sale.
Is it the full game or the shareware? In another post a few days ago they said it they were only offering shareware versions. Can’t check now, I’m on mobile.
Inb4 ESA shuts this down unfortunately
Just looking at page 1 there’s a fuckton of programs that are still officially sold on steam and GOG
And these “LOOK AT THIS OVER HERE” articles like this are just provoking these copyright holders to act
Edit: some of these appear to be demos and the freeware versions. I wonder if we can “insert” our own “legally obtained” files?
Haven’t dos games been emulated in browsers for…decades already?
They have Heretic!!
Now if they can just get Rise of the Triad…
i tried lemmings and it required a passkey for the demo to start.
C&C worked for me. Great stuff, really, but with things like Krunker it’s not too surprising.
It wants a code for level selection. You get the code for level 2 once you finish level 1, and so on. So just start with level 1 (F1).
