Tired of the same ol’ games you’ve been playing for months? Can’t find anything new to play? You’re in luck–Wikipedia has two lists of free games that you can download and play. And no, most of them don’t fall under the category of cheesy flash-based games on the web. Many of them are similar to what you would find on shelves today, or even in the style of console game favorites:
The only difference between the two lists is that open source games distribute the source code and allow modifications. Otherwise, if you are simply looking for a game to play, anything on those lists is up for grabs. Have fun!

great! thanks for this. I have been looking for some games. I found a few open source ones(for linux(pretty sure they have windows versions)) that are great. They quality of some of these games match(or beat) those on-shelf ones.
