It depends of the Macromedia Flash games we're talking of... For sample, Camper Strike is one of these "online games" which should be tried by everyone on GameToast... :wink:

So it's not that you don't like a game just because it's Flash based?

More or less, Sith'... Indeed, we can't really say that Macromedia Flash-based games have a chance to replace PC, Mac or consoles'... Furthermore, just think to the first *.SWF files' use : They were basically inserted on simple web-sites so as to make the browsing more interactive, and weren't intended to become "online games" at all !...

I know of a few game sites.
http://www.caiman.us is a freeware site,
http://www.gamemakergames.com is not a freeware site, but it has freeware games there,
http://www.allegro.cc is kind of like http://www.gamemakergames.com
That's all I can think of.

Oh yeah, Kight Online is back up. I got it and I'd give it about a 4/5. Its a great game with a lot of players, but if you dont have premium then you cant really log on until 2:00 (Pacific Time). However, it is still addicting and i cant stop playing.

While we are at it, GameToast members who would wish to get their hands down on a few free Star Wars-related video-games should equally consult this Google Results Page, since it refers to interesting and rather surprising stuffs... :wink:

Well, after having browsed some web-pages found through Google, I have succeeded in getting my hands down on "Open Source" video-games, and among all of them, I guess the following ones might interest most of the GameToast members viewing this post : Hopefully, I will be able to add brand-new ones as soon as possible, but in the meantime, have fun downloading and playing those I have listed above !... :wink:

Off-topic : DARTHVADOUR, ethannet, if you had consulted this thread's previous pages, you would have surely noticed that stand-alone games are highly favoured, instead of Macromedia Flash / Shockwave ones...

Anarchy Online is still free? I thought it was only going to be free until January 2006, or maybe it was 2007...I used to play it. Amazing depth. 4.75/5

the stargate wars looks alot like a cool game I used to play called Utopia by Swirve, you had control of a province and could create and magae an army to defend or atack other kingdoms(about 25 playr provinces would be grouped together to make a kingdom, so it was a team. Eac had its own forum). You could also send soldiers to explore land,on which you cld build all sorts of things to give you different benefits.

Off-topic : In fact, according to this web-page, Funcom© Anarchy Online can be freely downloaded and installed on any Computer, but you willbe forced to upgrade the Account you will have created on the proper web-site in order to benefit from all the Expansions having been conceived and intended to this video-game, such as "Alien Invasion", "Shadowlands" or "Notum Wars"...

Well levi, even though the base client is/was free, they still harrass you to buy expansions(since you would have to pay for expansions). It's how they make money now I guess. I still get emails offering upgrade deals, and I haven't logged on in ages.
