I suggest you look for freeware or shareware games. As you will not be able to get games you purchase from a store, for free legally.

What sort of games are you wanting?

If "cheat" = pirate, then you're in the wrong place.

If "cheat" = cheap, then as rscole86 has said, freeware or shareware.

If you want cheap commercial games, check out the GPForums.co.nz - lot of games get sold dirt cheap in there second hand.

Not free, but cheap. This GZ thread has links to Age of Empires III for 10c and Bioshock for 1.99 (both in USD). You said you wanted FPS, and Bioshock is one of the best. I highly recommend playing it through a 5.1 surround sound setup if you can, and definitely play it with the lights out for maximum spooks :-D

What about these free games (suggested by Ragnor):

Company of Heroes Online
http://www.companyofheroes.com/

Lords of the Rings Online
http://www.lotro.com/free.php

Dungeons and Dragons Online
http://www.ddo.com/playnow

Remember folks "free" doesn't mean pirate. There are lots of free content around that doesn't involve breaking copyright.

come on no one mentions http://www.gpdownloads.co.nz/cat.dyn/Full_Games/ Tongue out; some of the games are classics and some are multi-player but their is some good stuff their and best of all its all local downloads so should get a decent speed.


oh yes a game i love for a while was Battlefield Heros was good funCool

Free FPS try http://www.quakelive.com

Its browser quake pretty much rocks, plenty of aussie players to challenge

Battle for Wesnoth is probably the best free TBS around if you like that sort of thing. Unlimited replaying potential too with so many user created maps out there.

Is Americas Army still free? That game rocked until it went and got too power-hungry for my little old pc! Maybe I should really upgrade one day, but I like my 21in CRT, sempron +3400 with 1g ram and Radeon 9550 :D
