The links all go to the OldUnreal site, so I guess Epic has just left it up to the community to keep their legacy alive. Not necessarily a bad thing, but hopefully they send some of their Fortnite fortunes over to the maintainers.

You know damn well they wont :p
Imo the oldunreal people should have gotten access to post the original games on the store for publishing. The games still get small updates from the community from what i noticed when i got the linux versions going

also, it would have been great if Epic linked the appropriate archive.org pages. OldUnreal only hosts windows installers that grab the files off of archive.org

Hell, give them some part-time developers or something since we know they won't give any money.
