You should be able to get hold of a bunch of really good old games with a bit of Google searching. If you're into strategy games, try to get hold of Master of Orion 2 and one of the first two Xcom games, UFO Enemy Unknown of Xcom Terror From the Deep.
I'm not sure if it still exists but there used to be a great site called Home of the Underdogs which had a ton of great old games, many of which were abadonware. Certainly worth looking for that but it might have been taken down now.

HOTU has gone down because the isp hosting it at the time had gone belly up and the woman who made HOTU just didn't feel like going on anymore. there's
Home of the Underdogs that keeps the look and feel of HOTU but currently has no downloads and hasn't been updated since 2009, and
Home of the Underdogs which kinda looks like crap despite having most of the games available for download.
it's funny, I was here on the internet before google, and before hotu, despite just being 10yo back then.
Anyway, I'll be sure to follow your suggestion; there's also this french site,
LTF Lost Treasures Fr Abandonware France, l'histoire des vieux jeux video et retrogaming which has been around since 2000, and french is my native language so cheers.
