GOG.com (Good Old Games) has multiple old games such as Close Combat, Warlord 1 & 2, Warcraft 1 & 2, and Heroes Of Might And Magic 1-3. I found some old PC games on Steam like “Master of Orion 2”, and “Gazillionaire”.

But how the heck was it possible to play CDs on Windows 10 if they are not available digitally!? I did some research to find my old games digitally. It made me frustrated because those games are hard to find online to buy. Looking at my collection of PC games, it looks like I lost my copy of Backyard Baseball or it was too old and was thrown away throughout the years. I had a few kid games I wanted to play again such as Backyard Baseball, Jumpstart 1st Grade, Jumpstart 4th Grade Haunted Island, Jazz Jackrabbit 2, and 3D Ultra RC Racers. Nostalgia was calling me to play “Close Combat: A Bridge Too Far”.

I have tried multiple times to install them on windows in the past years but I always failed to install them because they were not compatible with the current version of Windows. The past few days I dove into a box of old PC games that were in the garage. PROS: You own a physical copy of a game, no need for the internet for older games, borrow CDs from friends, and you can sell your CDs.ĬONS: CDs can break, scratch, CDs can become lost or thrown away, and in today's gaming era gamers need to download updates from the developers to get the complete game even after buying a brand spanking new game. There is still hope to play these games again! Maybe The Flood rushed Bungie’s Headquarters destroying the code they had for the game. There are also some games like “Myth: Fallen Lords” that were developed by Bungie that have not come to the digital platform. With these businesses going out of business, gamers' favorite games did not come to the digital platform such as “Black & White”, old Star Trek games, Blade Runner, and all the “Backyard Sports” games. There are multiple game companies that went out of business or merged with other companies such as Midway Games, 3DO, Lionhead Studios, and Sierra Entertainment. The thing is 83% of PC games are sold digitally. 17 years later some developers still produce CDs for their games to sell for retail. The digital platform has helped the video game industry grow with multiple new indie game developers and publishers. Steam made it possible for developers to place their games onto a digital platform for less money than producing CDs. When the world entered the entertainment digital age in 2004, multiple digital stores came into the gaming market with Steam being the first in the digital marketplace.
