Just use dosbox man, it's super useful.

I can't get DosBox to read the disk. Trust me, I have tried this for years

Just Google the game name and be on your way. If you're literally holding the physical disks you purchased with one hand while you click the mouse with your other, your conscience should be all clear.

1: 17 nearly 18
2: Merry Ol England
3: Deus Ex Series (apart from 2),The Elder Scrolls (Series),Fallout(Series), Vampire The Masquerade(Series) and Ultima (Series except Pagan) (Yes I know it only meant to be five games but I changed it to series! )
4: Thief Series, System Shock series, Legend Of Zelda, Metroid, Half life 1 and 2.
5: More than likely it was Sonic 1 on the Sega Megadrive, it was most likely the first game I have ever played.
6: Silver to modern age. More so Silver age though.
7: Mainly Pc however I also play on my xbox 360 and psp a lot.
8: 7-8 I'm pretty into gaming, I'm always on the look at for "Retro games" and interesting gaming memorabilia.
