Freebies

I'm sick, so hell why not make another blog post:D

Okay so this time I'll be talking a bit about freeware games and open source games:)

 

First, Freeware games are games that the publisher or developer of said game has made free for anyone to download trough a third party publishing site such as for example www.gamehippo.com

Wikipedia on Freeware

Here is a list of freeware games and freeware databases:

Savage: The Battle for Newerth

Starsiege: Tribes and 1.11 Full patch

Freeware Home

Freeware Files

Freeware World Center

Jumbo

Freeware Guide

One or more of these site may also contain shareware (bastards:evil: )

Open Source games are games that freely share their code, but not necessarily art or models etc.

So open source games are both Freeware and open source (some commercial open source games may not be freeware)

List over Open Source Games and databases:

Battle For Wesnoth

Open Source Games for Windows

Wikipedia list

Open Directory Project

 

Well hopefully you guys will find some goodies here, my personal favorites are Battle For Wesnoth and Savage :)
