Abandonware France is a very neat French website where you can get old PC games that are no longer sold! (by "old", I mean from the 80s and 90s, of course)
(okay, it's all in French, but you can still check by title, see the screenshots and get some nice goodies... it shouldn't be too difficult to navigate)
Some of those games are configured so that you can just click to install and play (without the complex install process through Dosbox and whatever).
A very interesting section of the website is the "Voodoo Chamber" section!!
www.abandonware-france.org/ltf_abandon/ltf_listes_vaudou.php
What is the "Voodoo Chamber"? A list of all the cancelled PC games that were announced in magazines and expositions!! And never came to be!
Games of some of which I wrote articles on the Lost Media Wiki.
Coolsville
Kid interactive game where you meet and discover colorful animal characters that are inspired by Jazz culture.
Dog Eat Dog
Adventure and strategy game where you use dirty social and manipulative tricks to go up the corporate ladder.
Creation
Action submarine game!! A spiritual successor to Magic Carpet... save aquatic life from pollution and fight evil syndicates with your dolphin friends!
Download the demo!! (at least there is this!!)
Alien VS Predator: Nightmare On Ryushi
A cancelled Alien VS Predator game where you could either have an FPS game if you played the Predator, a point-and-click adventure if you played the Human or a real-time strategy game if you played the Alien Queen (yes, the Queen).
Cold Blooded
"Sexy, sexy, sexy!!" A comic-book style post-apocalyptic adventure starring the voice talent of Bruce Campbell! What more do you want?
Damn, now I am feeling motivated to write articles for these games now...
