[quote name='MrFlibble' timestamp='1339774092' post='86895'] There's a neat Italian site with lots of interesting (and sometimes rare) demos, but it's tough to browse because there is no easily accessible directory listing (or I haven't figured out how to get to it), and all the download links have to be edited manually to point to the site itself, because they point to a currently non-existing affiliate FTP. Directories of interest include: http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/msdos/games/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/msdos/games/arcade/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/msdos/games/demos/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win3xx/games/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win95/games/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win95/games/arcade/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win95/games/demos/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win95/games/rpg/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win95/games/strategy/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win98/games/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win98/games/arcade/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win98/games/demos/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win98/games/rpg/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win98/games/simulations/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win98/games/simulations/cars/ http://volftp.tiscali.it/pub/pc/windows/win98/games/strategy/ Note that you'll need to manually copy-paste the links in your browser in order for them to work, and to download anything, copy the download link and change "ftp://ftp.volftp.mondadori.com/" to "http://volftp.tiscali.it/" [/quote]

Not sure if I posted this before but here's the complete archive of SynTax, "a disk based adventure/RPG/strategy magazine" that had been published from 1989 to 2004.

Retrospec

Quote

Retrospec are a team of coders, graphics artists and computer musicians who have gathered together (and are grooving in a cave with a Pict? - Ed.) to bring you the best remakes of old 8 bit games and new original games with a decidedly retro feel that we can. We meet here in the clubhouse - a remarkable building with rooms on at least 5 planets (and a cosmic toilet, baby!)

The file archive at Demu.org had finally moved to the Classic PC Games collection at archive.org. It is now possible to browse games by various criteria, including year of release and developer/publisher, but thumbnail view is no longer available.

The original Demu.org website is now primarily focused on game research.
