Alright, so I'm looking for some games from the mid to late 1990s: Windows games, most probably DOS. They were shareware and I think you could download them from websites like download.com or tucows, but I can't remember for sure.
Basically if I'm not mistaken I downloaded a top down NASCAR-style racing game called SB racing or something like that; you raced around in circles and could refuel and stuff. This game could be bought in a bundle with a couple other games; I remember two more of them.
One was some sort of trench-warfare kinda thing. You played as a soldier from a 3rd person perspective behind a trench, and there was another trench across from you near the top of the screen. You had several different weapons; you could throw knives at the guy in the other trench when he popped up, shoot a gun at him, lob grenades, use airstrikes (limited I think) and some other shit. I believe the name was ripped off of Mortal Kombat-very similar name, maybe even the same/spelled as Combat.
The second one was a fastdraw game, 2d sidescrollerish where you had to shoot the other guy before he shot you, but you could only shoot in a short timeframe. Sometimes a bunch of cows would run across the level and it was set in some sort of Texan wild west town kinda place.
Any help would be appreciated, google has been failing me on this search!

What kind of games are you looking for? I have a bunch of old 90s strategy games. I also have Descent, Simcity 2000, Oregon Train 2. I want to find a working version of Tiberian Dawn (remember dat?). For strategy games, I have Earth 2140, Civilization 2, Imperialism (published by ssi, I believe), Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, and StarCraft: BroodWar. I think those are all my 90s games at the moment, but I'm hoping to get a hold of some more.

Specifically the ones I described.
+ Show Spoiler +but speaking of 90s games, Dark Reign, Breakneck, Commander Keen, Dangerous Dave, and some others were fucking great. I've got a folder laying around with a bunch of other oldies too, like Doom, Disney's Aladdin, Alleycat (!!), the original NFS, etc.

thanks for the link; plenty of games I recognize on there but sadly not this one in particular.
Apparently Stunts was also released under 4D Racing, who would've known :p
