Free PC Games

Try Little Fighter 2, it's a side scrolling beat 'em up with co-op features and unlockable characters.

Desktop Dungeons?

This.

In edition you could provide a commentary track detailing your descent into madness as this game consumes you.

I've lost a LOT of time to this game. It's insane. It seems so simple but the more you play the more strategy you find.

I've lost count of how long I've played and I've still only completed two dungeons. Stuck on the Warlord. I only have the Fighter and Barbarian finished.

I agree with these assertions. It may not look impressive at first glance, but once you start playing it can be hard to stop.

EDIT: Good God, how could I forget the Elder Scrolls games? Bethesda made the first two games (Arena and Daggerfall) available to download for free a few years ago.

Be warned though, it can be tough to get these games running correctly. You'll need DOSBox and probably a tutorial or two as well.

Well I heard The elder scrolls 2/3 (cant remember) had gone free, and I recall Freespace 2, also dwarf fortress is a excellent free game

I'm doing a PC Playthroughs channel on YouTube but my awesome computer broke down shortly after starting it and I'm forced to use a laptop. I want to keep doing games but the laptop is not built for gaming so I can only play old games with horrible graphics.

Can anyone recommend some old, free PC games I could download?

Steam:
-Alien Swarm (co op though)
-Trackmania Nations Forever (racing game though)
-Bulletstorm Demo
-Betas (hmm they may have secrecy clauses)
-Half Life 2: Lost Coast & Deathmatch (if you have AMD/ATI/Nvidia graphcis cards, no intel chips)
-Moonbase Alpha
-

Just check this whole list:

Look for System Shock 1, particularly the modded "Mobile" version.

The first one had a terrible control scheme, but the Mobile mod added typical FPS controls.

 

[Caliostro]

Oh yeah, Myst Online: Uru Live is a very different experience.

And it's not exactly high on requirements, particularly if you pull down the graphics and such.

 

[jackpipsam]

DDO, it's a free action mmo

 

[JambalayaBob]

World of Tanks is a great free to play MMO, you couldn't really LP it though for obvious reasons. Another good game is Spelunky, although you definitely shouldn't play through it blind on your Youtube channel, it's quite hard.

 

[Choppaduel]

Is doom freeware?

I give you...

Classic Gaming Network

All the games you can download here have gone freeware, so it's fully legal. Just make sure the install files are less than 100MB, as you would need a paid account to download games whose install files are larger than 100MB.

Edit: This is a good place to start from.

I've managed to unlock all 12 of the base classes and races. Attempting to unlock the harder stuff is just ridiculous though.

Not that it stops me.

 

[gravitate]

i dont know, fear combat, vindictus, league of legends (i dont play) and a whole lot more, just look for it in youtube.com/householdhacker

Really good stuff there. And it is all Indies.

 

[dangitall]

This is a good RPG I found. Completely free. [http://www.kongregate.com/games/Pseudolonewolf/mardek-rpg-chapter-3?acomplete=mard]

Emulators?

Pick your fav console, download the ROM's and go nuts.

Definitely try Ninja Gaiden for the NES with some cheats on.

Frantic, fun and you can actually play it! (as apposed to just dying every five seconds . . . bloody Ninja Gaiden)

Well I like a little bit of everything, but my favourites are RPGs and Shooters.
