davidnThe Underdogs has just been rebought or something again (don't bother clicking that link, it isn't there). That's rather bad news. If anyone's interested, it's just the domain name that's been bought, and it can still be accessed using a plain old IP address: http://209.120.136.195/
Recently I found a decent Czech site that has a lot of old games on it - notably, the old LucasArts point and click adventures like Sam 'n' Max and Day of the Tentacle. "Játékok" leads to the downloads, if you're wondering how to get at any of them. The Czechs seem to be very into their old games, as productions related to The Daily Click can regularly be found on such sites as well.
So I've updated by Retro list, which doesn't quite have the same HTML-CSS-PHP-MySQL polish as my music site, but it does what it's meant to. I'd like to extend once again the invitation to comment if you're interested in obtaining anything listed there. Not that anyone ever does, mind you.
