DosBox

[sycogrim]

This is added value for those who wish to play their favourites from the past using DosBox. It surprises me that no one has added this as a thread but, since we are adding some value to the forum I find this being one of the best things, especially for those wanting to play their games all over again. :)

So to get to it, DosBox is as I said a method for everyone to play their fav's using a Dos emulator. I personally used it plenty times, namely for Monkey Island and Duke Nukem.

Give it a shot folks, I can guarantee that you will love this not to mention that all the games that have been featured will be available and can be used with DosBox.

I honestly struggled to get ScummVM to work properly, I think it was more of a "I'm a n00b" flaw and I just couldn't understand how to run things accordingly. But when I found out about DosBox I think it made more sense to me. :o

DosBox is the sh!t!!
Also if you do not like Front end for Dosbox.
Try using DFend. Its a very nice front end to make setting up profiles and launching games easier.
