Some examples of games with multiple versions:
- X-Wing, Tie-Fighter: Once you bought it, you can download the '95 (Windows 95, hi-res, no iMuse), the CD (DOS, hi-res, iMuse) or the floppy (DOS, lo-res, iMuse) version.
- Hotline Miami: You can choose the Windows version or the (demaked?) DOS version.
- Baldur's gate (both): You buy the enhanced version, but can download the original versions.
On the other hand, they always lack on the international versions (i.e: ther was a spanish dubbed version of Stunt Island, I've got the original spanish CDs of X-Wing Alliance). Also, they never hid the fact that their games use emulators, wrappers, fixes or even cracked executables (Re-Volt) to play their games on modern systems. Their goal is allow the users to play their games in modern systems without unnecessary harassment.
At least they give proper credit to the people who created the fixes (DOSBox, etc) and their games work... look at Steam, where you can buy games that maybe won't work on your computer (i.e: Eurofighter Typhoon has troubles even in Windows 7) or won't work at all (i.e.: Insaniquarium, Luxor).
