In Defense of Video Games: More Than Just an Entertaining Time Sink. Drunk Men Work Here - Games - Fresh Zero Content for Compulsive Clickers. The Kingdom of Loathing. Retro Video/DOS Games For The Weekend - Smashing Magazine. Advertisement We thought we’d do something a bit different for the weekend, because not everybody is actually working during the weekend. And even if we do, we deserve a break from time to time. For just this occasion, we have poured across the four corners of the Web and amassed a collection of retro games to help you make the absolute most of your break time this weekend… and possibly any break time you take from this day forth.

Focusing on the days of the old DOS-based games, we sourced some emulators so that you could revisit your old favorites once again without having to downgrade your machine. So flex some willpower (or kiss your weekend goodbye) and dive into the deep end of this DOS-day throwback to get your ROM on. Game Showcase Prince of Persia Prince of Persia is a 2-D platformer with run and jump game play. Pac-Man The player controls Pac-Man through a maze, eating pac-dots. Bethesda Softworks.
