What's new?
+ Cheats are coming soon
The results of our current webpoll indicates that most
people would like to see cheats added. We are in the
process of importing about 300 cheats for DOS games. We
will also add some walkthroughs in the future.
+ DOS Games Archive CD-ROM
On this moment, we are developing our own CD-ROM with 200
DOS games. The disc will contain a complete graphical
menu system that can be runned under DOS and Windows,
with reviews and screenshots of the games.
We have also implemented an install function, so you can
play a particular game in a few seconds. You don't have to
download them from the Internet anymore!
The CD-ROM project is not finished yet (50% completed),
but before we setup a secure server with credit card
processing (so you can order it from our site), we would
like to hear from you if you are interested in buying it.
Here are *some* games you can expect on the CD-ROM:
- Alone in the Dark
- DOOM
- Duke Nukem
- King's Quest
- Links: Challenge of Golf
- Prince of Persia
- Quake
- Secret of the Monkey Island
- The Need for Speed
- Wolfenstein 3D
- Worms
- all games currently available on the site
..and more!
For only $9,95 (includes shipping costs all over the world)
Please contact us (mailto:webmaster@dosgamesarchive.com)
if you are interested and we will notify you when the
CD-ROM is available. Thanks in advance!
