A lot of old games have become unplayable on modern hardware and operating systems. I wrote an article about how making games open source will keep them playable far into the future.

I also discuss how making games open source could be beneficial to developers and companies.

Feedback and constructive criticism are most welcome, and in keeping with the open source spirit, I will give you credit if I make any edits based on your feedback.

History is important, although more recent history books have better evidence and data than old ones. Literature, generally, ages well, although it's mostly survival bias. A lot of it perishes without any loss to the society. Movies sorta age well. Again, only some. Games don't age well.
