I stopped playing because it had only 4(or 3?) Maps. I liked it a lot, I never liked any BF-game before, but that was nice because of the skills you had and because tanks were not as good as I think them to be in BF. Playing a ninja was just awesome(a sniper with invisibility and just knifing every single one of those camperbitches) € One thing about Robot Unicorn Attack: It is so good, but it has one downside: I started to like that goddamn background song(Erasure - Always) because I heard it so often and even started to open the game to listen to the song.

An excellent fighting game. Standard moves, blocking while backing from opponents, lifebar etc. It has normal fighting combos but not as much, it has a card system to do special moves with which is pretty unique. It also has air dashes and a bigger focus on ranged attacks than most fighters.
The game has it's own community and a lot of people play online on hamachi everyday. Tournaments often and everything. I'll post more info soon. If you wanna look it up just google Touhou 12.3.
Personally I love the game but I'm just too into Melee right now and kinda lost motivation to play it right now.
Why would you play that when you can play Stepmania? Which is also free.
Becuase it has a clean and crisp player (no I do not need a accuracy setting above perfect jeez), great music, no dl. I hate how everyone from SM and osu! are always saying things like that. While the online website and stats died, it's still a great game. Seconded.
edit: on second thought I can do better than starknights, the link is still up there.
Arcuz, hack and slash exactly the same as diablo 2, except a bit harder at many points. Easy to cheat, like in d2. Takes about as much time as d2 on normal difficulty to finish.
Do not spend money on this game, just do one of the free things to get mochicoins. The only useful items anyways are the high level weapons, and they just make the game easier and faster. Most other items do not help much. Just like in Diablo, you can spend real money to make things easier if you'd like, but the rewards of spending money are far less.

This game is technically not free. The only reason why it could be considered "free" in America is because it's ridiculously hard to get. Sorry about raining on peoples parade but this is technically illegal.
Short of that, an alternative DL (non torrent) link: [url blocked]
I've been playing a game called bzflag (Battle Zone Capture Flag) for the last 4 or 5 years while avoiding my addiction to starcraft in order to finish college. It's an open-source first person shooter based on the oldschool tank game, battlezone. The engine is very simple, you play as a tank with a limited number of shots per reload and depending on the server you can jump or pick up powerup flags to gain unique abilities. The game has a small, but quite competitive community that I've had a lot of fun with over the years. There is a surprising amount of depth to the game when you strip it down to the bare essentials, 2-3 shots per reload, no superflags and teams of 2-4 players playing ctf. Because the game isn't terribly fast-paced, timing, teamwork, and positioning matter much more than twitch reaction speed at high levels of play. That said there's plenty of twitch gameplay involved in close fights and a certain skill ceiling of shooting and dodging you need to reach to be able to compete. The graphics are pretty barebones, but I've played a half-dozen shooters semi-competitively and always find myself drifting back to bz.
http://fantasticcontraption.com/ Pretty fun free game, not really long but makes you think...if you dont use youtube to cheat. Objective = get the pink ball into the pink square. Either easily or super complicated.
Aurora. Where to start? The most extensive and heavy 4X spreadsheet Ive come across so far. Possibly the most extensive game Ive come across all in all. If youre one of those people that play casually, move along. This game is for true hardcore people that put extreme dedication into what they play and dont care about graphics.
The game practicly lets you do anything you want to. Everything from appointing officers with their personal traits to designing the targeting system on your next cruiser and optimising your mining colonies.
I challange anyone that like this kind of extensive spreadsheets to try it. Be aware that it will most likely take you several days until you even can have a decent game going! Again, its not a game for anyone.
I highly recommend Captain Forever by Farbs who also did ROM CHECK FAIL, both of which are must plays.
Captain Forever:
Asteroids style game where you are able to use the parts gained from your down opponents in a pseudo-upgrade cycle. ROM CHECK FAIL:
A quick and dirty arcade game. The goal is to collect a number of coins to get to the next level, however the game changes every few seconds and both the player and the enemies change to that of different classic games. My first level involved me using Mario to stomp on asteroids for instance.
Other non-Farbs related games: Spelunky Shown before in this thread. I started playing this last year, there is not a time when I haven't thought of starting up another game.YOU MUST PLAY THIS GAME.
You play a utahraptor wearing a safari hat and a monocle, and you run down prehistoric dinos to send them to future to make hamburgers. What more could you possibly want. Only playable on facebook now, for whatever reason.
An entrant in the Global Game Jam 2010 in Sydney, everything in the game bar movement is done using a microphone. Enemies die and walls open according to the volume of your voice. The link above is the prototype, right now they are trying to accrue funds for a full version. Donate!:Gnilley Official Website
A collection of strange and quirky games by the indie developer Cactus. They range a few genres, there's platformers (Shotgun Ninja), adventure (Mondo Agency - very strange), shooters (xWung); very recommended.
Turn-based WWII dogfight simulator, if the Germans had giant floating fortresses. Each turn involves planning the movement of your planes and trying to take down opponents. Very strategic, hence why I suck at it.
Free Kick Mania A small Korean (as far as I can tell) football/soccer free kick flash game. The best of it's kind that I've seen.
There's a few more I can name but I'm a bit stretched for time.
Type: MMO/Shooter Setting: Space. Languages: English .Available Platforms: Pretty much Windows only, don't know about mac. Available for iPhone. System Requirements: Anything Comments Love this game it has been around forever and is completely kick ass, and it has ingame chat channels
http://www.qcfdesign.com/?cat=20 Languages: English Available platforms: Windows only System requirements: If you can run StarCraft, you can run this. Description:
It's a rogue-like game, except each playthrough takes a couple of minutes. The dungeons are randomly generated and you unlock more dungeons and heroes as you beat the game with different heroes in different dungeons. After you beat it all, you can become a contender on the online high score table. This game is HARD, but very fun. It can easily stop productivity and induce procrastination.
Languages:English Available platforms: Windows System requirements: Not listed, but assumed to be very low Description: This game is a sidescroller that is absolutely huge. Many different doors lead to many different places. The animations are very nice, and it is very fun and relaxing to play. If you like Mario or Metroid, then you'd probably like this one.
Toribash Languages: English Available Platforms: Windows, Mac, Linux Description: Toribash is a turn-based fighting game with ragdoll physics. Every turn you adjust each muscle on your fighter. Each muscle can be set to contract, extend, hold, or relax. The goal of the game is to get as many points as possible by hitting the opponent. If a linb is hit hard enough, it can be dismembered or fractured. You can also lose through disqualification. If any part of your ragdoll's body (other than feet and hands) touches the ground, that person loses.
