MS-DOS Games are back
Assalam likom wa rahmat ALLAH
Peace and Blessings be upon you
Hello Everybody
Do you wonder what makes my memories flow about my 1st & 2nd PC in the last post?
The answer is very simple. Well, people who are in their late 20�s and above used to play some fascinating DOS games 10-12 years ago, like �Aladdin� or �Prince of Persia�.
Those games were really nice, and they were the top listed games in the list of the favourite games among many people worldwide. Those games are consider nothing to the today �virtual reality� games, however they still have some special taste for me.
Not only playing with those games give me that special taste, but also it�s great to read the �ordering info� for those games; to find that anyone � in those old days � have to make a choice to receive his/her copy after purchasing either on 3.5� or 5.25� diskette.
Can You imagine this 
On the internet, you can find sites which used to make an archive for those games, which contains complete information about them + providing links for downloading. Here are screen shots for some of those games form DosArchive.com
Aladdin
Prince of Persia (4D)
Mario
The Need for Speed
Wolfenstein 3D
DOOM
Sim City 2000
You can download those games and play them as if you were playing them 12 years ago.
The games are listed there, either as “Freeware” or “Shareware” or “Demo”.
Download Links
- DOS Archive … ( I recommend it )
- DOS Games … ( Good also )
Notes
- Don’t forget to check the “Links” section in both sites
- You can play it under Windows2000/XP and later, however I think it might be better to have DOS Emulator program, which creates a �real DOS environment� to make the games run better.
- DOS Emulator program called “DOSBox” which work for any OS can be found here
Didn’t I told you that “It’s all coming back to me now”
Salam,
Hicham
