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!
