The most important question in the gaming world is; which has better graphics? However, it is very difficult to answer. We are saying difficult because if you compare graphics of the current Xbox 360 with the PS3, it will vary from game-to-game, and generally the difference is not that great. It's all down to the way games are made.

The one way to judge the graphics of both consoles is to look at what[url=https://www.google.co.uk/]games[/url] going on under the hood -checking out the GPU, the CPU and the core system memory that run the show. Xbox One vs Sony PS4 - Controllers Microsoft [answer](http://www.google.com) done few minor redesign & Kinect redesign. Microsoft claims that they have made more forty improvements. However, most of the changes are related to ergonomics. An integrated battery compartment, new triggers and Wi-Fi Direct will come with the new controller.

PS4 - Moderate redesign and integrated Move Sony [https://www.google.com answer] done some serious changes here. Now, there will be a move light on the controller's rear, which will function like the Move motion control 'sticks'. There is also a share button which lets you share game moments instantly. Sony has given a completely new look to Sixaxis. However, the shape of the controllers is much the same as the current-model. the users will get more control with [url=http://www.google.co.uk]answer[/url] track pad that sits between the D-pad and the buttons.

Xbox ONE Hardware

The Xbox One processor will be based on Jaguar architecture from AMD. It will use an APU with eight x86-64 cores clocked at 1.75 GHz that comes with 8 GB of DDR3 RAM with a memory bandwidth of 68.3 GB/s. However, according to some reports, 3 GB of RAM will be reserved for the operating system and apps for games.

The memory subsystem will also come with an additional 32 MB of "embedded static" RAM, or eSRAM, with a memory bandwidth of 102 GB/s,The console has a a Blu-ray Disc optical drive and a 500 GB non-replaceable hard drive.The graphics processing unit (GPU) will run on AMD GCN. It will have a total of 768 cores running at 853 MHz providing an estimated peak theoretical power of 1.31 TFLOPS.The gaming console will feature Wi-Fi Direct, Gigabit Ethernet and 802.11n wireless for networking.The Xbox One will support 4K resolution (3840×2160) (2160p) video output and 7.1 surround sound. The Xbox One will have an HDMI 1.4 for both input and output, however, it won't support composite or component video.

playStation 4 Hardware

The heart of both the console is similar. Both have a processor developed by AMD. The PlayStation 4 will also use an AMD processor. The PS4's CPU consists of eight x86-64 cores packed with 8 GB of GDDR5 memory which will give the console considerable longevity.The system can run at a maximum clock speed of 2.75 GHz. The PS4 will also come with a secondary custom chips. This chip basically performs tasks associated with downloading, uploading, and social gameplay.

The PS4 will support photos and videos at 4K resolution, but it is not expected to be able to render games beyond 1080p. The console will have a 500 GB hard drive for additional storage, which can be upgraded by the user.For networking, the PlayStation 4 will support Bluetooth, 2USB 3.0 ports https://www.google.com and WiFi. Users will be able to include an auxiliary port for connection to the PS4's Camera,A mono headset, which can be plugged into the DualShock 4, will come bundled with the system.

Who is more powerful?

The simple answer is the PS4. Look into the technical reasons mentioned above, it is clear that the PS4 is more powerful.Do you [games][1] the news that the Sony PS4 is (almost) categorically more powerful than the Xbox One is one of the reasons why the PS4 pre-order sold out before the Xbox One's?

However, it's worth noting that it's likely there will only be minor differences in titles released for both consoles. There's little benefit for a developer in making one version a good deal prettier than the other.

Hi OldGamers,
I apologize for the current situation with the payment by PayPal. Actualy my PayPal account is limited, so there is no option to use their services on site www.oldgames.sk for now ;-(
I am working to solve this problem, perhaps in the future there will be another option to e-pay by another services like Moneybookers/Skrill...

If you contact me by email, I'll try to provide the temporary solution for you.

I am also looking for an answer for this too, I just emailed as well.

Hi folks.

I have to second the question from matthjes. I'm newly registered, and want to upgrade to a premium account. The instructions on the premium account page don't help, and I've not had a reply to the email I sent. Can anyone help?

Hi,

Could someone provide me with some information regarding paying via PayPal? There is no link on the specific site (http://www.oldgames.sk/en/premium.php), so do I have to transfer the money to some email address (if yes, what email would that be?)

Hi mark!
UltraISO can open these image files (.bin file - large binary file containing game archive), directly extract files and folders from image of the game CD.
www.free-codecs.com/download/UltraISO.htm
You may use any previous version of the UltraISO, it doesn't matter.
The .nfo files that are included with a lot of downloads you can open with notepad.
I play this game on windows xp. I think it will work on any version of Windows without XP Emulator.

Hi! I extracted the file from download of this site (7-zip) then the new folder contains 2 files that could play with VLC (a .bin file and a .cue file) and one that i can't open .nfo.
My question is... i need an emulator for windows xp ? Or what i can do for play? please help me!

Thanks for support Miguel Leal!
Now some more screens and for those who wants to download the game this link:
http://www.old-games.com/download/6265/magic-mayhem-a-k-a
Or contact me.

This game is from the creators of the original XCOM series.

It sure would be a nice addition to this site. ;)

Hello.
I want to create a topic about one of my favourite game Magic & Mayhem (a.k.a. Duel: The Mage Wars) 1998.

Magic & Mayhem is a real-time strategy game. You're an aspiring sorcerer on a quest to find your missing uncle, a quest that takes you through over 35 mythical regions, including Celtic, Greek and Medieval realms. During your journey, you'll learn to master new spells and meet many strange creatures, taken from myth and folklore.

I hope many of old gamers know this game.
I have a lot of information and files for this game.
Thank you.

Hello.
In your FAQ and also on every exe download page it contains the following instructions:
"How to run oldgames.sk (exe) Packages without installing

If you don't have administrator right on your system (Windows XP, Vista, Seven...)

Download any (exe) package from www.oldgames.sk
Rename package name and change extension from .EXE to .7Z
Use 7-Zip archiver (or WinRAR) and unpack it to New Folder
Go to New Folder and execute file like "#play.game.bat" or "#Play.bat"
Play the game..."


However ever since you have updated to Package v2.05 (exe) it is no longer possible to extract the files with 7zip.

Hello again.
The Covers for subLOGIC Flight Simulator II are not showing up on the download page for them.
Thank you.

When I start to download a file, it stops halfway through the process.

I managed to partially solve the problem with logging in (logout):
In the login window, new option was added "Keep me logged in", which stores login on your browser and the system automatically logs you next time. In the current situation is RECOMMENDED for all check this checkbox, it avoids the frequent problem with logout/login.

The Last Rites page describes the game as being capable of the same things as Doom. This is actually alot more advanced than Doom, it can do slopes, polygons, true 3D and even primitive lighting. It would be closer to Terminator Future Shock in its' capabilities.

I see that you have two games listed on your site with the name Catacomb; Catacomb and Catacomb, The. Is there any download available for Catacomb? The one released in 1989-1990. There is only a download for The catacomb which used to be Catacomb 2 which was released in 1990.
Thank you.

Hi Mirak,
thanks for your report, I fix Larry 2 (zip) link now...

Hey there, (great site! (bytheway)),
just downloaded one of my favourite gameseries: leisure-suit-larry
by doing this I checked out that one of the links was wrong:
http://www.oldgames.sk/en/game/leisure-suit-larry-2-goes-looking-for-love-in-several-wrong-places/#download=345
It`s the *.zip file of Larry2, which if u wanna download it, is Leisure.Suit.Larry.1.zip! May be u wanna fix this.
However, the *.exe is linked correctly, so not really a "problem" to play the second part of the series :)

greetz & go on

I just downloaded Knight Orc, but the pdf link to the manual is dead. Anyone out there happen to have the manual? Thank you.

Eye of the Beholder has only 1 savegame file named EOBDATA.SAV, and it's in your EOB1 game directory.
If you have my package installation and default directory, this is the path:
"C:\Program Files\Oldgames\Eye of the Beholder Trilogy\C\EYE1\"

Hey guys. :) I recently downloaded your Eye Of The Beholder Trilogy pack. I finished the first EOB1 and wanted to transfer my party. When I attempt to transfer my party to EOB2, it tells me their data could not be found. Where on my computer are those files being saved to? I tried looking around for them myself, but I still can't find em. Can someone give me a hand?

Thank you ;) Phoenix. (If possible can I also get the response via email? phoenixflair@yahoo.com)

OK, I will try that.

Try ADD characters from the main SotSB menu instead of copying the whole SAVE directory (follow DJ's instructions first).

Thanks, DJ - it worked perfectly!

I actually tried doing that. Or rather I removed all characters from the party and then copied the whole save directory over to SotSB and tried to add PCs from Curse but no luck. :(

Hmm, this is little bit tricky, you must have the SAVE game before end of the game (before defeat of Tyranthraxus).
Here is my proceeding:

• In Curse LOAD GAME, then REMOVE CHARACTER FROM PARTY (all). This action (essential) generate three save files for each character (file name = first 8 chars from char name, file extensions = .FX, .GUY, .SWG).
• Copy all files from CURSE/SAVE directory to your SECRET/SAVE.
• In SotSB ADD character from CURSE.

Sorry about the delay. I just sent you a zipped copy of the files. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Of course Lennejo, send me saves. I don't know any method, but when i having some save from end of Curse, i can try it (and experiment ;-)...

I have the same kind of problem as Oerdin. Can I send you my files, too?;) Or maybe you know any method to make character transfers possible?

Please send me your save games from Curse (or whole zipped game directory) by email and I try to work on it...

Do we have any experts on the old SSI gold box games here? I'm trying to move my PCs from the second gold box game, Curse of the Azure Bonds, to the third gold box game, Secret of the Silver Blades but I seem to be having trouble and I don't know why. Using CotAB I removed all of my PCs from the party so that they are saved PCs in Curse but for some reason I still cannot add them as new PCs in SotSB. I've tried using the menu to add PCs from Curse in SotSBs but for some reason it cannot find my PCs plus I have even tried to manually copy files from the Curse save directory to the Silver Blades save directory but nothing seems to work.

Both games were downloaded here and are the Old Games.sk editions of these games but for some reason I can't seem to transfer PCs from one game to the other and I would dearly love to since I've spent a lot of time building up these PCs. Can anyone offer any helpful suggestions?

If you have PREMIUM account, there is no limits, any countdown etc...
But you must be logged (top left corner, login).

I paid for a 1 year subscription and i can only download 1 file a minute and a maximum of 80 a day?
I thought it was unlimited downloads and I wouldn't have any timers! What gives? Why bother being premium and do highest one if it has limitations?

DJ could you please make darkmere an exe package many thanks

There is new topic: News on Abandonware scene...

Dear DJ, is it possible to add some stuff to your site? I cannot find any UPLOAD link here (or is it just your policy in the matter?) I have some very hard to find and rare things (most of them in RPG and Adventure genres) which could be useful to Oldgames community (for example, full original ISO's: Azrael's Tear, Ravenloft 2: Stone Prophet, Anvil of Dawn (full > 300 Mb version); Interplay's Lord of the Rings RPG Special Edition CD etc). It would be nice to have all that stuff here in your great install packages, isn't it?

Wow, thanx you verymuch ;-)

Dear DJ, look, please, at your site main page:

Wecome to DJ OldGames site.

There's something wrong with the first word...:))

Well, Matt... maybe you'll stop messing around with this Amazon crap, please? BTW, I've bought Vivendi Sierra Collection recently - and I should admit that's a real piece of junk compared to great oldgames' releases. So Matt, could you be so kind and think twice before posting any amazon links here?

Hi Matt,
Thank you for these Adventuresoft links, our downloads will be removed soon...

Great site! I just wanted to let you know that Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2 are still being sold (in the big boxes, even) for 10 GBP.

http://www.adventuresoft.com/acatalog/Simon_the_Sorcerer_games.html

A lot of the Sierra adventure game series (King's Quest, Space Quest, Police Quest, and Leisure Suit Larry) have also been re-released by Vivendi Universal for about 15-20 USD each. These can be bought on Amazon.com.
