Hello, The title says just about all. Basically, I'm looking for an Internet site that archives a good selection of up-to-date shareware and freeware games for the pc - the kind found on most local BBS's. Thanks in advance for your help.

The purpose of (most?) ftp sites is not recreational. For example garbo archives only has games that have an educational flavor (see the /pc/ts and /pc/games directories), and a few good other games as examples. ...................................................................
