Freeware games, as in free games to download and play off the internet, and don't mean piracy and what not. What's the best one you've played, or own.

Mine would be Knytt Stories by Nifflas, or I Wanna Be The Guy, the most fustrating game I've ever played.

Possibly Iji; fantastic game. Second to that would be Knytt Stories.

Minions. It's a flash game, so you don't actually download it, but it is fucking fun once you figure it out. Other than that, a large selection of games over on Kongregate.com are quite good, and free.

Battle for Wesnoth!

Fantastic turn-based fantasy strategy game, with plenty of campaigns and new additions all the time.

I heartily recommend it.

Also, I'd recommend checking out Abandonia Reloaded which is a great repository of freeware games.

And finally, would you include games that have become freeware? For example the fantastic adventure game "Beneath A Steel Sky" has been freeware for a while now, and is well worth playing.

Penumbra!
Probably the best horror game I've played.

Quake Live And Kyntt Stories, and I Wanna Be The Guy, but its not nearly as hard as everyone makes it out to be.

The best out of those would be, hands down, Cave Story.

Frets on Fire, if your into the whole guitar hero/rock band thing. Theres a pretty big song making community too so you can get pretty much any song for the game.

A Game With a Kitty 2: Darkside Adventures

My word what a mouthful! It's a good game, the music is excellent (I wish they gave out some MP3s...), the graphics are nice, it's funny and with a bit of tweaking I think it would make a solid DS game.

I don't think it is technically possible to own freeware...

I think Iji is probably the best freeware game i've played. But if you've got friends around, then look for Uberleben, or maybe cowboyana...

There's also N. Not N+ on the console market but the original. That's good. Only 1.8mb too.

That game also is the one of choice for me and my friends at school when we are bored, it is always fun and can bring the most random things to the table.

Yume Nikki. I hold it in such high regard because of the mood- it scared the everloving hell out of me. Don't play it at night.
