Welcome My Abandonware to tAR!

Over the years we have seen "the throne" passed between Abandonware sites that have come and gone. The largest have always had a partnership with tAR, from XTC to Computer Emuzone -and that's something which continues today...

HOTU was the first, back in 1998. Sarinee created THE go-to place for classic games (for years we thought she was a guy)! A massive library and bustling forum kept numbers stable.

Then came Abandonia in 2003. Darkmoons Legacy News #903 announced their arrival, and it can't be denied that Kosta's creation was a serious force to contend with.

Now, in 2025, undoubtedly the crown rests on the head of My Abandonware.A revival of the original oldware.net site, My Abandonware is now home to over 33k games! Yes, 33,000 classic titles are available for viewing on their cleanly designed website.

We welcome back our old friends and recommend everyone check them out - if you haven't already of course!

Computer Emuzone & OK Games

With Computer Emuzone being one of our oldest family members, it was great hearing from Keplini after so long and receiving CEs continued support. 🙏The dedication shown towards the upkeep of what is probably the largest and oldest Spanish audience Abandonware site is just amazing!

In other news I must point out that there appear to be a few issues with ISPs serving OK Games! right now. My VPN didn't load the site, but turned off it was fine. I've spoken with the guys about it, and can confirm the site is alive, pumping content, and working hard on updates so check them out.
