Ever wanted to play those old games from back when you were a child, only, you've lost the Cds and or Diskettes? Good Old Games is your answer. Basically, it's a site that sells older games, games such as Fallout 1, Fallout 2, Descent 1-3, and so forth. The cool thing? The games only have two prices. $5.99 and $9.99. They're DRM free, and they've been reworked so you can run them on XP and Vista..even on your Multicore PC with your Geforce 9800 GTX. Also, once bought, you can download optional Music, wallpapers..just random things, the catch, there isn't one. Alas, though, the site is still in Closed Beta, but I'm in the beta. I haven't bought anything yet.. but the game bring back so many memories. In any case. Here's a link. Note, I can't actually access the closed beta signup page, so I have no idea if you can still sign up.. I'm airly positive you can.

That is amazing.
I'm a huge fan of older games. I'll definitely look into this.
Nice find!
