    Remembering the Past....for free

    looking up some stuff on wikipedia and came across this list of former comerical games that have been re-released as freeware so thought i'd share. Obviously it would be smart to check prior to downloading one of these that it is still indeed freeware.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...ed_as_freeware

    some interesting ones that stand out (to me)
    Beneath a Steel Sky (1994)
    Beyond Castle Wolfenstein (1984)
    Championship Manager: Season 01/02 (2001)
    Command & Conquer (1995)
    Command & Conquer: Red Alert (1996)
    The Elder Scrolls: Arena (1994)
    The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall (1996)
    Grand Theft Auto (1998)
    Grand Theft Auto 2 (1999)
    Mad TV (1991)
    Out of the Park Baseball 8
    Railroad Tycoon Deluxe (1993)
    SimCity/Micropolis (1989)
    The Suffering (2005)
    Tribes 2 (2001)

    any that stick out to you?

    Tribes 1 converted me from strategy to FPSs. Other then that, not really any names that are nostalgic.

    Would GTA or GTA2 run on WIndows 7? I've been looking for a racing game and free is cheap

    Well, to be fair they became kinda "meh" after Tribes 2.

    Still... I don't think a better team-based shooter has ever been released.
