Apparently they are compatible with modern operating systems but I'm wondering to what degree and if the modded releases fans put together (The Sims 2 Starter Pack a prime example) are going to be better in some aspects.

It is interesting, however, how those old games are emotionally worth as much as new ones, even more.
If we think about value equivalent, though, then 30$ for a game would be like 5 times more than a license copy in a bookstore in Moscow 20 years ago.
I miss those bookstore game stands very much, it's as if someone were carefully making a selection of the best things, I may not have played all of the games I've seen there, but any name I can remember is golden. I suppose bookstores attract a particular kind of employees. Would. Back then.
Anyway, I agree the games from that time are still good. Could we please resurrect all other good things about that ecosystem? Thought so.
