http://www.gamehippo.com
It probably went down a long time ago but I randomly wanted to get an old game off of it today and got slapped in the face. Anyone know of any other good freeware game sites?
I suppose http://www.freewaregames.net/ will work but game hippo was teh ubarness...
Gamehippo is dead.

Re: Gamehippo is dead.
Gamehippo isn't dead, it's having DNS issues. It's alive and well at 216.92.35.228 . Well, technically the site is still alive, but it's been dead, both in new game reviews and in forum activity for ages. I know because I'm regularly trolling there and none of the moderators even care.
Hell, they haven't even reviewed Tyrian 2000 yet, despite my efforts to make them

underdogs lets you get abandon ware and others allthough some of the downloads are tricky to get..

Hey guys, I don't mean to revive a several month old topic, but I figured it'd be better than creating a new one. Anyway, as stated in the previous posts, GameHippo.com is dead. However, I am making a revival site at http://www.TheGameHippo.com come check us out and offer some suggestions!
Shameless self-promotion :)

Atleast its an ontopic relevant spam, not like CH3AP V!AGRA AT M3XICODOC.ORG
Re: Gamehippo is dead.
Cool, hopefully you can get some more games on there and become the most epic freeware thing evarrrrr, like the more sane looking old gamehippo.

Re: Gamehippo is dead.
There's already a comprehensive site for abandonware.
It's called bitorrent. I doubt gamehippo could compete.

BitTorrent still isn't that comprehensive, if you exclude private trackers it isn't comprehensive at all...
Re: Gamehippo is dead.
Agreed. And you cant browse torrents too easily like you can on a site such as gamehippo where you get reviews, screens, comments, ratings, etc soo you can find new stuff relatively easily you may not have thought of.ZellSF wrote:BitTorrent still isn't that comprehensive, if you exclude private trackers it isn't comprehensive at all...
