Our dear Sid


Recently I found my Civ IV somewhere, and started playing with it. Although it was fine and everything, the old feeling is gone, simply it just does not have the athmosphere Civ and Colonization had. Still there is one game which has a unique feel. Most of you may be surprised, but I just loved old Sid`s Alpha Centauri, and especially Alien Crossfire. Yes it`s true that the technologies are a bit lame, but the factions, and the diplomacy are so awesome, that I can forget all those stupid laser pistols.

update: previous torrent was not working
this one is fine ;) it includes both the game and the expansion

Simon the Sorcerer


I'm back again with a new shiny gem! At this time, there are 3 seeds for this torrent, which is just enough. Simon is a former normal boy, now goofy magician followed by his little doggy. This version is full talkie, so leechers ahead!

Links: Simon the Sorcerer
XP patch (not sure if torrent includes it)

Oh, and according to various sites, such as Wikipedia, the fourth episode is coming in Q1 2007, which must mean soon :) For more info peep into the Official site

update: Simon the Sorcerer is said to be already released in German language

The Dig


I've just received a great
hint what to write about! A torrent of one of my old time favourites, in CD format :)

Link: The Dig (originally it was intended to be a movie by Spielberg)

comment: I'm gonna seed the Dark Sun torrent for a while

Hi everyone!

My previous blog was not that succesful (probably because it was in Hungarian:)), but I do not give things up that easily, so I'm back with GameShelter. I intend to save old relics using the popular filesharing method of torrents. I'll try to find the shining gems of the Internet, and if some helpful people gather here, we may help each other :) Most often I will look for CD versions, or stuff that cannot be found on abandonware sites ;)

My first victim is a torrent from awesome TorrentSpy, I hope you'll appreciate my idea to breathe life into these games...looking forward to your responses... :)
