Old games were fun, in the past. And nowadays new games are fun.

Except for those of you curmudgeons, who oddly think that only old games can (still) be fun. I don't understand your ilk.

>>745951307
>There's no reason why I should put the new ones on a pedestal and focus on them.
For me, them being new is reason enough. I feel like I've already played all the games of the past that mattered (and I played them THEN, back in the day). Old games don't matter anymore, however.

online services and DRM are often intertwined with each other. the point of this thread is being able to backup games without that shit enabled. a physical release is useless if it's crammed with all that shit in there. now stop being retarded.

>>745956594
nta but this "preservation" thing seems kind of naive
not only is it a technical nightmare even on a modest timescale, with you getting the games "in translation" eventually anyway
but the whole thing seems birthed of a 90's culture of extremely limited data transfer rates and how it impacted the dissemination of software in general

i can't remember the last time i was looking for a software product and had a hard time finding one. the only function sites like this serve anymore is as a brand manager for cracks, so you can be relatively confident that you haven't picked up anything malicious even if you aren't particularly technical. even then, i can count the number of sites left with that kind of rapport on one hand and they're all private oldhead shit.
