retrofuture 

A genre of music that can best be described as "What they thought the future would sound like in the 80's". Appearing in films such as Blade Runner or Hobo with a Shotgun, the mood of a retrofuture song can range from cheerful and wondrous to bleak and dystopian, but the common factor is always synthesizer. Sometimes, a retrofuture song is composed entirely from synthesizers.
"Have you played Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon yet? The entire soundtrack is retrofuture!"

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
