LeeRyder · 05-13-2005, 09:06 PM

just found this on Microsoft.com... had never noticed the free ones you can DL.. but theres a decent list of games there:
(EDIT: Be sure to download the Cnet Games, those are mostly the free full package stuff)
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002 Standard Edition - complete package
by Microsoft

Doom

Need for Speed III: Hot Pursuit
by Electronic Arts

Fighter Ace
by Jaleco

Age of Empires
by Microsoft

Space Invaders 1978
by Netadelica

Grand Theft Auto
by Take 2

and on and on for several (many!) pages, enjoy! (why do I feel like DGridley now?)

I spent tons of money on the year 2000 one. They are probably worth lots because MS doesn't make them anymore(You can crash into the Twin Towers!

There's this game by microsoft called Allegiance - it's a mmo space sim. They made it free some time back and it's REALLY cool

Clicky: http://www.freeallegiance.org/ ...ya need to register before you can download

I wanted Casino and "Age of Empires", but like a lot of the games that can be downloaded from CNET, they appear to be free only because they are demo versions.

matrics · 05-14-2005, 03:43 AM

bummer! 2002 flight sim is only free after mail-in rebates...

LeeRyder · 05-14-2005, 03:47 AM

liam_d · 06-03-2005, 06:45 AM

A lot of them are demos though if you actually go through, tis a trick to get you playing, like it and then buy it.

Joseph · 06-03-2005, 06:56 AM

:iloveyou:

.Matt · 06-03-2005, 07:04 AM

So are these demos or full?

Mixed posts saying they're demos..

LeeRyder · 06-03-2005, 09:29 AM

*some* seem to be demos.

I have full scale versions of 80% of those that I've downloaded though.

Albeit, I havent downloaded all 500 pages lol
