I just received one of my requested games for the PC. Unfortunately, it's a fairly old game and it was sent in 3.5 and 5.25 floppy discs. I don't happen to have a floppy drive in my computer at all.... so I'm unable to play this game with my existing hardware.

I looked in the game description and no where does it specifiy the format of the media the game comes on... I think this needs to be added.

 I still gave the sender positive feedback as it wasn't his fault and I probably should have thought of this... but I'm going to remove all older pc games from my request queue until Goozex can modify the descriptions so that I know whether I'll be able to play a game or not.

 My basic operating model has been - everything before '93 is on disk, and stuff '93 - 95 is iffy.  I do have a 3.5 USB floppy that has served me well. I'm not sure how they would do that - but perhaps when you match for those games you should PM the seller.
