    There's a great thread here for favorite free utilities.

    What are your favorite games that you guys found out there for free? I know this is a much more limited field when comparing *good* free games gto *good* free apps, but there's some stuff out there.

    (Mods: sorry if this goes in gaming. i figured most free games aren't as intense as what I think of when I think "gaming.")

    Well America's Army is a great free program. It is a large download though.

    AA is free? I didn't know that... I may have to try that out sometime.

    There are several free mmorpgs out there, mostly 2d, just have to look around for them, sorry, can't really give any examples myself...

    There's also GUN, it's a free online shooter. I think it's called GUN...

    One of the best semi-free games out on the web is Dofus. It's a 2D mmorpg made in Flash which has some of the best 2D graphics I've ever seen. The downside is that the free version is limited to a certain area which is rather big but in no ways comparable to the members area. Still, if I were you I'd realy try it out, you may just like it!

    This is their site: www.dofus.com

    Enjoy! :D
