When I think of Abandonware, I'm reminded of some decent games like the original Phantasie (Thanks Lord Wood!), Bard's Tale and Shadow President. Even years later they are evergreen titles that are fun to play again and again.
I played the game pre-"fix" and switched over to CoH/CoV. I downloaded the 10 day trial, it is okay. It reminds me more of some sort of mod for Quake or something than Star Wars Galaxies.
Earth and Beyond, it was a fun MMORPG until EA killed it off, pulled the rug out from under it, etc, etc. It had a good crafting system, and a great social environment.

I miss Earth and Beyond. City of Heroes is fun to play, but not quite as enjoyable as good ol' EnB.
