Its a website full of abandoneware, alot of it downloadable from their site. If there is a classic PC game you missed out on, or want to dig up again, The Underdogs will either have it, or direct you to where you can get the game(they won't host any files for games that are still miraculously sold by some company or the games maker).

It harkens back to the old www.pennyarcade.com andwww.penny-arcade.com thing, except the good penny arcade's address wasn't ever without the slash.

Actually Daarkseid, that isn't entirely accurate anymore.

First of all, HOTU only has UNDER-RATED games on their site. You won't find DOOM or King's Quest on there, but you might find Strife, Motorhead or MULE.

Second of all, it has started to host under-rated ROM's as well (Yae Ar Kung Fu, River City Ransom, Harvest Moon)

Yeah, you're right now. Last I really checked the site though, they did have all the King's Quest games on there, though I don't believe you could have downloaded any of them on their site.

But they do have King's Quest 1 VGA and King's Quest IV AGI(the old Adventure Gaming Interface that King's Quest 1-3 used). Though the latter isn't available for download either because its copyrighted by some member of the IDSA.
