A List of Freeware games ..

Battle of Yavin

Battle of Endor

These two are games made by some guy, and they are really good. Graphics are fine, but the game it's self (while simply just shooting) is incredibly addictive.

They're based on the Battle of Endor and the Battle of Yavin from the Star Wars films, so, ya know, play it.

I just downloaded Endor today actually, nice to hear that there's a Yavin as well.

Yavin's not complete (just graphics wise I believe) but it's still playable. The Battle of Hoth is listed on his site as well, but he hasn't started making it yet. That would be an awesome game methinks.

havent played it yet, but it was in the new york tmes today and gamespot rated it 8.9 so you might aswell give it a shot.

Façade is an artificial intelligence-based art/research experiment in electronic narrative – an attempt to move beyond traditional branching or hyper-linked narrative to create a fully-realized, one-act interactive drama. Integrating an interdisciplinary set of artistic practices and artificial intelligence technologies, we have completed a five year collaboration to engineer a novel architecture for supporting emotional, interactive character behavior and drama-managed plot. Within this architecture we have built a dramatically interesting, real-time 3D virtual world inhabited by computer-controlled characters, in which the player experiences a story from a first-person perspective. Façade was publicly released as a freeware download / cd-rom in July 2005.

You, the player, using your own name and gender, play the character of a longtime friend of Grace and Trip, an attractive and materially successful couple in their early thirties. During an evening get-together at their apartment that quickly turns ugly, you become entangled in the high-conflict dissolution of Grace and Trip’s marriage. No one is safe as the accusations fly, sides are taken and irreversible decisions are forced to be made. By the end of this intense one-act play you will have changed the course of Grace and Trip’s lives – motivating you to re-play the drama to find out how your interaction could make things turn out differently the next time.

ALTER EGO!!

I used to love this game when I had DOS and now the creator has put it in web form with a new version suopposedly coming soon.

The game takes you through life from a baby until death (if you make it that far).

I played that Alter-Ego game for a few hours. I was raped as a kid twice, got left at the alter, and when I finally got married my wife died in my first action with my wife. I finally died in the Old Age level when I had a heart attack when I caught a fly ball on a softball team.

Is it possible to run games compatable with MS-DOS on XP?

[Scott McFly]

This is in the Knowledge Base, so I presume it works:

Does anyone know if Colonization is freeware yet, and if so, where can I download it?

[Hobo]

Yes you can, I got it at http://www.cgarchive.com/. But I've seen it at some other sites.

Need For Madness

Destruction Derby like game. Graphics aren't the best, but it's good fun to play if you're bored for 5 minutes.
