Does anyone know of a website or service that allows you to pay for games and download them legitimately? I'm not looking for warez, don't talk about warez here. I want legitimate sites please.

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

I don't know... I'm looking around because I want to download games because I'm too lazy to go to the stores. I'm not talking about freeware, shareware, or even browser or cheap remake games, I'm talking about a site where you can pay for a game and download it.

thanks for mentioning yahoo... I'll look into it.

Full PM-box? Change here!

[edit-removed. sorry!]

there's wildtangent, but they suck and kill your computer with spyware.

msn and yahoo both do a sort of download service, but yahoo has real games.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

I just checked out yahoo, they have a decent selection of games, but not really what I was looking for. I want something that has the same selection as any retail store where I can just pay for the game and download it... not rent it, not subscribe to some monthly service to play 3D super solitaire... but real PC games.


the search continues...

oh, and if you wanted to buy into it, there's always the infinium phantom console.

http://www.phantom.net/

though i think it's vaporware. and if not, doomed.

Got spare money?

Try Yahoo games on demand, you can get the same ones from a retail store.

Please don't talk about the abandonware sites either. While it's a grey area, the management here has determined that since they don't have official rights on all the games there, they should be considered the same as warez sites. Another words don't discuss them.

Shockwave games are pretty cool...not as good as retail games but they can be a lot of fun! Try Couronne! I play it all the time.

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Well, Stardock offers their games online for downloading, and some publishers sell you their CDs online. Some games you can only buy from their online stores, I think Mind Rover Europa is one of these.
