NEW MEMBERS GALORE!!<br />
<br />
I apologize to the new members, some had to wait several days because I was offline recently. Now without further ado, I introduce our new members of the week.<br />
<br />
Our first new member is home for an interesting project that turns your USB drive into a portable FreeDOS-based gaming system. The beauty is that those uncomfortable with DOSBox configuration can skip that altogether. The project is in constant development. Get to know <b>Retroplay USB</b> right away!<br />
<br />
Along came your regular abandonware downloads site, only in german. It has a decent selection of games. I found it annoying that the site won't let users browse with a popup blocker activated (and nowadays that's 90% of the population). The download links are allegedly sent through e-mail to users, which I also disagree with but won't argue because it's not the first site to do it. So there's room for improvement, but it's one of the rare german-speaking abandonware sites. Let's all welcome german <b>Free DOS Games</b>!<br />
<br />
It's funny how many abandonware czech sites are called the same (I know the name means "Old Games" and that's fine, although I feel there could be more variation). This becomes apparent also because there are many large abandonware czech sites. Anyway, there you have it, very decent number of great games, a lot of content (including videos, that's how I like it) and you can download all you like from <b>Stare hry Old Games</b>!<br />
<br />
Last but not least, there's a new power in czech abandonware sites coming to Abandonware Ring. It has a ton of games emulated right on the site, which made me just miss an hour worth of work done while playing Disney's Aladdin for the Sega Master System. It's running very sharp too, so I can highly recommend it. Get some playing done on <b>Retrogames.cz</b>!<br />
<br />
That's it for today folks.
