Don't
worry about the apparant emptiness of this page—I'll get to work on it

DOS Games
- The World's Most Low-Key Website
– And it will probably stay that way, since my dad's site has
never had "snazzy graphics" (like my pages do), nor does he
update it more than once a decade. There are two 100+ year old
books transcribed here (one historical, one technical), as well as a
paper he wrote on serial communication, a Guide to Spam-Like Products,
and links back to here and to Arachnoid's site.
- Guide to Spam-Like Products
– Just like it sounds. My dad's other page, updated far
more often, which has scans of every variety of the 12-oz. rectangular
cans of luncheon meat (even foreign ones) that my dad has ever come
across—over 100 unique cans!
- Arachnoid's Web Page
– My older brother's webpage. Obviously, his pages are a
little dated. (Okay, a lot!) There are some nice pages he
wrote on buses here, although if the rest is any indication then
they're probably very dated too…
- RGB Classic Games
– My favorite DOS games site; formerly called Classic DOS Games.
Has a collection of over 400 of the best DOS, Win16, and Win32
games ever (searchable by name, author, publisher, license, year,
etc.), with over twice that many different versions, screenshots, a
forum, utilities, and much more. The majority of the games can
even be played in your browser with the help of a Java applet.
- Home of the
Underdogs – One of the finest DOS games sites out there,
complete with a searchable database and screenshots. It has
changed domains several times in the last 5 years; this new link is
accurate as of 2011-Feb-14.
- Jazz 2 Online
– The best Jazz Jackrabbit 2 site around that I know of.
Need I say more?
- Haze's Hideout
– Another Jazz Jackrabbit site, this one with information
(and downloads) for both Jazz 1 and 2.
- PlanetDescent – Formerly the absolute best
Descent site on the 'Net, with shareware demos, levels, patches,
and general information for all three of the Descent games, D3
level editing guides, and a forum that was invaluable. (For
example, I learned not to use NVIDIA display drivers any higher than
version 163.75 with Descent3, to avoid OpenGL
problems.) I was saddened when I read on the
DXX-Rebirth page that PD had
met its end.
