Playing Acorn Games with IBM PC on MS-DOS?
« on: May 12, 2016, 10:53:38 PM »
This might be abit off topic as the post is about PC games but thought I would ask anyway. Do you know if you can play Acorn Archimedes games on an IBM PC with them running them in MS-DOS? Thanks for your help.

Cool, thanks for that guys. Think Risk OS has now got Dos-Box availability. Guess you could run  PC Floppies on this emulator for the Archimedes computer.

So I'm assuming DOS was far more advanced than Risc OS back in the day.
