So yeah, it's a good collection. You do need to do some work, though -- for some idiotic reason they default the dosbox settings to fullscreen-stretched, and each game has a separate dosbox file, so I now need to go modify all ~30 games to play with the correct aspect ratio. Ugh! Why in the WORLD would anyone play games stretched? It looks so awful! (I know, I know people who play games stretched. It looks bad.)
Also, it's disappointing that it's missing a few of Apogee's freeware games, and they aren't available on the website now either, since they got this all-new site (except for the forum, which is the same as ever, just with some new forum categories). I know it's been commented on there, but put the two trivia games, Dark Ages, and Xenophage back up! Dark Ages particularly has always been one of my favorites, and with the right dosbox settings you CAN get it to work... you just need to limit dosbox to, like, under 200 cycles, or something like that.
