My guess is, when a game get's its "hooks" into you, some people just can't let go. Which is why I still play Counter-Strike to this day - even if it's not as much as I used to. I even resurrected my old stomping ground called Spacemonkeys, just because I could. That game will always have a place in my collection, (relatively) shit graphics and all. So maybe this is his way of keeping a personal resource for his games before all internet resource finally stop serving related files?
