Pretty decent russian website, very good alternative for My Abandonware.

Old-games.ru is a website dedicated to abandoned PC games, was founded in 2000 and is based in Russia.

Why It Rocks

  1. First of all, unlike sites like My Abandonware or Abandonia, they are not afraid of platforms like Steam, Gog or Origin, nor are they afraid of remakes or compilations, which makes this site a very good place to find games.
  2. The design of the site is very good and quite organized, so that the user will have rather little chance of finding them.
  3. Their library is very large and they have most of the known titles for free download, especially since they are looking for games from every well-known company.
  4. You can add a game, unlike most other sites like My Abandonware.
  5. You can also write your own review and add your own rating which is saved in your account.
  6. Speaking of an account, it makes sense to have one unlike Western sites of this type even though you can download the game for free.
  7. You can write articles that don't necessarily have to be related to old games.
  8. This site even has its own wiki where it is discussed in great detail how to use the emulator, although unfortunately it is in Russian. With the help of a translator, you can use it.
  9. You can also add files, screenshots, etc. without limit and they are sorted categorically so there is no mess.
  10. The site has no ads at all, so it's not even a little frustrating.

The Only Bad Quality

  1. It is only in Russian, although it offers the possibility of translating into English. However, not everything is translated so you have to use Google Translate or another machine translators.
