Gunz Online
www.gunzonline.com
Ratty gave a good explanation on how this works, so this is what he said... and clarified by myself.
"You can call this game an alternative FPS game. It's like in the Hong Kong movies, where people run across the wall, run straight up the wall, tumble around, with badass uzis and rifles. And best of all, swords, katanas, and dual katanas can be used in place of weapons.
This may sound lame when I tell about this game, but it's seriously good, and great fun to play. Gunz only requires, about, 500 Mhz.
The servers may be full servers sometimes, since our friendly korean players try to play for free at the international beta." ~Ratty, as modified by Dameon Angell
City of Heroes 14 Day Trial!

City of Heroes is having a 14 day trial. Lots of fun, I decided to give it a go.
Auto Assault Beta Applications
https://secure.plaync.com/aa_beta.html
Auto Assault is taking applications for its beta. Twisted Metal meets World of Warcraft for a Mad Max style MMORPG
Also, the Battlefield 2 Demo is out!
http://www.fileplanet.com/154388/dow...lefield-2-Demo (account required for the fileplanet downloads)
They also released a Single/Multiplayer Demo for Battlefield 2. The site might be too overloaded for this, so I'd try Fileplanet

[UT2k4MD] -= Unreal Tournament 2004 Mods and Demo =-
Unreal Tournament 2004 Multiplayer Demo
http://www.unrealtournament.com/ut2004/downloads.php
7 Maps, 1 for each of the 7 game modes of UT2004. They are all online playable with lots of people logging on every day to play. You can play on any server that is demo-compatable and any retail person can play with you.
SAS: Into the Lion's Den
http://www.sas.jolt.co.uk/
A team objective/deathmatch style game in the same vein as Counter Strike, SAS uses the Unreal 2 Engine to create a more realistic experience. The game still plays in an arcadey fashion, lots of weapons and camo loadouts to choose from with different helmets for each. A fun game to play, just wish more people would at once.
Deathball
http://www.deathball.net/
A football/soccer/hockey style game where you take a ball and put it past the goalie into the goal. Simple concept, but just like Continuum, it's very easy to learn, but difficult to master. Good community of players on the UFO clan server make this a good, and addictive find.

FilePlanet Download Manager v.2.0
http://www.fileplanet.com/DLM2/
If you goto this website to check out the game demos and get the newest movies of games like I do, then I'd pick up this cool program that will wait in line and then download the file for you, without having to have you sit there the whole time waiting to click "Okay, download now". If you're not a paying member to the system, also like me, then you can only queue up to 3 at a time. But really, who would need much more than that? :P

Gunbound: World Championship Edition
http://61.74.68.183/GIS/gunbound_GIS_WC_427.exe
http://www.softnyx.net (registration site)
Take the old school 2D Worms, and then upgrade its look and make it a 4 on 4 affair. Just be wary over the fact of the community, as a whole, has a larger chip on their shoulder than the average weasel player.
Continuum

You should have this right now ... or you wouldn't be here. This is for anyone who would need this link.
Punk-O-Matic
http://www.flashplayer.com/games/punk-o-matic_movie.php

Maple Story
http://www.mapleglobal.com/
A 2D side scrolling MMORPG. You get to stab cute things and watch them die. Moderately entertaining.
Dragnarok Online
http://www.dragnarok.net/
Its a free version of Ragnarok Online. I'm not sure how "legal" this is, but people at the local lan cafe in my area play it religiously, and the staff there is very against pirated games, so I'm pretty sure this is cool. It might be a dumbed down version of Ragnarok to get past legal problems. Been around for a while. Go try it out, you have to register for their forum (registration button on the left side) to be able to play.
Game Maker Software
http://www.gamemaker.nl/
Hmm, I guess it should go here, since it creates free games. Well, if you ever saw G4TechTV's Attack of the Show, you would have seen this a few days ago. Now, this program gives you everything you would need to make any game you want to make. If you make a game, show us.

And just a note. I have an old episode of Jay Leno on right now. It's running a 2nd repeat on NBC. And Hillary Duff, she's the main guest on the show, who's talking right now. Well, I just gotta say, she really doesn't seem like she knows what she's talking about ... and she's talking about herself. Is she 16? Cause if she is, then that'd make more sense to me. If not, she needs to learn how to talk in public.
