meanwhile some of the legally available old games are just spreading virus, literally. see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34101899 https://news.ycombinat

  That seems to indicate that the game has a vulnerability which can be exploited. That is very different from actively spreading a virus.

    And most old games are run within emulators (even something like dosbox) anyway. All you can do is infect that. But in those days viruses were truly rampant. I have many Amiga disks with viruses on them. As my Amiga had no hard drive and only 1 floppy there wasn't many places for them to go though.

  And some legally available contemporary mainstream games are also viruses! Hello kernel-level anti cheat developers :)
