I am using open source in Windows 8.1.2 to support old DOS games. The Emulator works extremely well and is very stable. As frontend for DOSBox I use open source , here the .NET version.
Haven't tried "em-dosbox" yet.

I remember frogger being the one they always demo'd to sell the old C64, and I used to love Wolfenstein and leisure suit larry on the old Amiga 500
Was Frogger the game where the Frog tried to hop across the road before being run over?
I stand unequivicably behind everything I say, I just dont ever remember saying it !!
I think you are right and having survived that it had to cross an alligator infested stream IIRC.Originally Posted by gordon_s1942
Favourites I remember are Jazz Jackrabbit, Duke Nukem, Commander Keen, Rise of the Triads and Wolfenstein.

Before that was PONG (as in Ping Pong) & Packman, I remember playing them on a Commodore 64 that I was given as a sample to test for import, from my father in-law, around 1982ish.
Surely they would have been available for PC as well.
Pong
Packman

I think this may have been the first IBM PC game that I really got into.
Pre-PC there's more than I care to admit.
