Another in the non-game type game.

Orbiter - A free space flight simulator

Hard as hell to understand. I never even got the shuttle off of earth successfully (the real shuttle not the glider). Extremely realistic and lots of fun to dink around with.

Oh, and for those of you that don't know or missed the thread. Metal Gear Solid is freeware and available for download on Underdogs. The download (http://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?id=5057) was pretty slow a while back, might still be.

It CAN'T be freeware.. not unless Konami releases it themselves.

Or just build a MAME cabinet like I'm doing.  I just got a set of joysticks and buttons to make a control panel with; I'm buying an I-Pac and a trackball next week... I'm psyched.

Icy Tower it's cool but it's very repetitive...

If you wanna an addictive game try DROD. I've never been the same again...

The best Pacman remake I've found

The guy had to take the game off his site, but I dug around and found the renamed file.Ã,  ;D

Kick ass post, by the way.

Neave.com is a great site. I found it while looking for Hexxagon, which was a game I used to have when I was younger. I really reccommend it. It's here: http://www.neave.com/games/hexxagon/

If you are a fan of the Elder Scrolls (Morrowind), you might be happy to know that the first chapter of the Elder Scrolls series, The Arena, is now freeware.

You can download it at: http://www.elderscrolls.com/downloads/downloads_games.htm

Now if only they release Daggerfall as freeware...

You build stuff. With other people.
And then you walk around and do stuff.

Well my new addiction is Freespace 2, which is now avalible on HotUD as abandonware,  I guess even
the sourcecode has been released.  If you haven't played this space sim, you really should,
it's one of the best space combat sims I've ever played.

The version on HotUD is a CD rip, so it's hinky to get it working and it's missing voice,
music and some of the movies, but these are avalible from other sources,
and I'll soon be hosting the voice and files on my site to spread the wealth.

I highly recommend this one.  If you get it and can't make it work, PM, IM, or email me
and I'll walk you through how to get it to work on your Win XP box.  To get the core game files (219mb),
just do a quick search on Home of the Under Dogs, and get the Bit Torrent download.

Also, this game comes with a mission maker, so you can make your own custom campaigns. 
Another up-shot of this is that I've found hundreds of user made campaigns and 
full mods for free on the internet (again get in touch with me for links and what-not)
that seem well thought out and very nicely made.

And now for some eye candy yummyness:


there are dozens of ships that you get to fly...  I've barely scratched the surface



this is how the "menu" system works, compleate with nifty animations


now THATS what I'm talking about !


you should see what happens when those beam weapons hit your little fighter



All in all, this game gets a 10 out of 10 in my book, the missions are challanging,
you required to think as well as fight your way through them. 
The storyline branches and your performance is rewarded.  Download it today!

I've ruined the productivity of the lab I work for by introducing my colleagues this little game:

http://aluminumangel.org/attack/

It's Crack Attack, a game based on a SNES ROM (Block Attack, I think it's called). You must put the blocks in lines of 3 or more blocks, and it's quite addictive, more if you play against an opponent (only in LAN, on the Internet is quite difficult to play). It was quite hilarious, as everyone started to play and tried to challenge me, I always won, and I got to the point I didn't want to play anymore but people still insisted... :-P I guess you can humilliate other people too with this game :-)

Hm, it seems to me that you all don't know that much freeware games, alone because some games posted here are not freeware at all!! So, I post some of my favourites here!
I won't post all now because I don't have the time for this!!

Well, there is this university where you can learn everything about making games called Digipen.

Some of their projects turn out great, many not. These are my favorites:

Ta-ta Mahatta

Mantis (maybe oe of the best freeware games I ever played, but one of the least known also!)

Vektor Space

Scrapped

Geode

Bontago

RS-6


Also, nobody should miss the side-scrolling shooter  Entrance Gate (the normal website seems to be down in the moment, it is www.vrealware.com)
Robot Porno,   Uh   Uh!

Well hey.. Didn't notice that post was two months old.. Silly me

No, what I mean is that Clex isn't around at the moment, not how old his posting was. He was traveling across country and who knows when he'll be back.
