Not sure if this has been posted here but I stumbled upon this recently. The internet archive has put together a ton of classic arcade games you can play online in your browser.

Pretty freakin cool.

Yeah I've played several of the arcade titles on Chrome. I assume it will work just as well with the DOS games.

I think it's a Javascript emulator which Chrome does very well with.

I take it back. I tried to play Street Fighter II on Chrome and it was quite slow. Not sure if it's just the emulator or the browser.

The Arcade games lend itself well to this format but I can't see myself playing a lot of these DOS games in the browser (Sim City, Civ, etc.).

It's still a cool idea though. I'll play around with it more after work.

Don't have a gamepad at work so I can't test it. I'm too young to know what this is. Is it good?

It depends on if you have a Chewy Caramel Center or not.

Another cool site to play old games in a browser: LINK

Emulator is in Flash but the games I've played ran really well.

Get you some of the Chip N' Dale Rescue Rangers LINK
