For serious though some real bangers out there like Power Of Chaos, Dynasty Warriors 4 Hyper, Battlefield 1942 (!) and BF Vietnam (!).

*! these were triple-a games now totally free to play with fan dedicated private servers.

Has anyone out there made a dedicated downloader/launcher for abandonware? I bet something like that to get all of the private servers, widescreen hacks, and so on in one convenient place would be cool as hell.

Lutris does some of this: You can submit your configurations and WINE setups for games to make installing them easier for others.

That sounds like a fantastic idea. Too bad it couldn't be put out there as like a bounty or something for coders.
