I recently acquired a sizable collection of computer games from someone who clearly is or was very enthusiastic about war-themed video games. War games are popular among the type of people who would normally contribute to an entity such as MobyGames. As such, all of these acquisitions are already in the database (though I do have a lot of scanning ahead of me since scans of many of the CD-ROMs I acquired didn’t make it into the database).
I’ll start with some World War II-themed titles:

Ultimate Collection is a bit of a collector’s item if you have the box and materials.
Interstate ’76 takes some patience to get running but it is a fun game if you try to.

@Jim: What you see is what I got– naturally, I didn’t get any of the valuable Ultima Collection packaging. Suits me fine since I’m just a bit collector.
