Roms are games that aren't available anymore, or have been downloaded and distributed on the internet. These games are from old game consoles such as Playstation and Nintendo 64. Instead of looking for your old game system, you can download these games and play them on your computer.

Not every game created will be on the internet though. Only the most popular and most important games created for that game console will be available for download. These games are the exact same games that you have been playing for your old game consoles, its just gonna be on your computer. Feel free to download all of your games free. Just watch out for what websites you use. Roms have a high risk of carrying viruses.

Roms are sometimes obtained and distributed illegally, causing legal problems for the people who download these games. Its hard to know whether a game is obtained legally or illegally. I have listed this warning.

I think if one was to use search engines wisely, they would probably find a website that legally distributes roms, but most likely they will not be free.

Brothersoft is a website that offers software and other content to the internet. Amongst all of the things Brothersoft offers, they also offer games and emulators for your computer free of charge. Its hard to figure out whether these games have been legally or illegally obtained though.

In addition to the emulated games, they also offer great games for free for your computer. There are limited categories though.

Before you continue to this website, I would advise you to get some great security for your computer. Brothersoft has been known to send some very nasty viruses to computers. Whether you are downloading games, emulators, or software, you are at risk for viruses and other attacks. It isnt Brothersoft, but the occupants of the internet that are the real criminals. They upload legitimate content, but add viruses and other malicious codes in order to destroy your computer and steal its information.

Coolrom is a website that specializes in offering rom downloads for free to internet users. These games are great and are safer than most rom download sites. Once again, I don't know whether this site is legal or not, but I know that it offers many great games online for you to download and spend countless hours playing.

There are no roms for the new game consoles such as Xbox 360 or Playstation 3, but you may be able to find some Playstation 2 games on the website. It might just give you direct links to legal or illegal content though.

Out of all the information that  have received about this website, there have been very limited complaints that I have read about people receiving viruses and other malicious codes to their computer as a result for downloading rom games. This may be the safest website for rom downloads on the internet.
