You must lead a sheltered life! (just kidding) MANY MANY of the old games are available (i.e. pirated or via patches/hacking on your originals using docs spread over BBSes) in file versions... Dung Beetles, Choplifter, Hard Hat Mack, Star Maze, Montezuma's Revenge, etc... I could go on for a while! I'm not advocating piracy, I just said that many are available that way.
