don't be so hung up on freeware. shareware is just as good, and often, practically, freeware.

Not really. Shareware is only yours for a limited (usually very short) time. And then it expires unless you pay for it, and if you don't, you can't play it anymore. What's the point? I'd rather have freeware and keep it forever. For free.

Besides, I did a search on the link you sent for some of my favorite 80s-style arcade games and turned up no results.

Been there. Both sites contain some pretty good random freeware games ... but I still can't find my 80s-style arcade clones!
