Who says you need to pay an arm and a leg for good computer games? Want to run around with an M16 and lay waste to people? No problem. How about go adventuring in a dungeon? No worries. Maybe you just want to take over the world? Again, not an issue.
This collection of the best free computer games on the web contains a little something for everyone from the RPG nut to the strategy game enthusiast to those who just want to go out and blast something. These are free full game downloads, some of which were commercial games that have since been released as freeware. This list excludes Flash and other web-based games, so each of these games will require you to download the game and install it on your computer.

Meta revealed that an Xbox VR headset was on the way back in 2024, so where is it? And what form can we expect it to take?
Yea, the problem is that the games worth playing in VR in Microsoft's catalog do not run on Meta OS. Hands down one of the best VR experiences I've had was MS Flight Simulator, and you need a beast of a system to run it well! The one thing that could push Meta headsets is an "official" release of Minecraft VR. You had to do some workarounds before to get it running in VR (which is an amazing experience, I don't actually play the game flat), but they just removed all VR support for the game after an update at the end of March. Bring it back with an official, easy to use Meta Quest version. I wouldn't buy an XBox branded Quest, but I'd at least like to see them do a bigger push into VR. Doubt they'd do it bc it's still so niche, and they're struggling atm and trimming the fat as it is. (But omg, would I kill for an official Forza Horizon in VR w wheel support!!)
I'm not sure that a Metaquest with an Xbox logo slapped on it constitutes it being an "Xbox" headset. But whatever.
combat arms?
I'm pretty sure that every PC gamer knows where to get "free" games.
GTA2 is the worst GTA game.
Thanks Rockstar.
I like a lot of the articles you have been putting up lately! Very nice!
