The Marathon Trilogy.

A trio of FPSes from Bungie, the makers of Halo. Full of kick-ass action, with intricate puzzles as well as plot so rich in detail that it spawned a cult following.

Everything you need can be found here. Download a scenario ("Marathon" is the first), then download the appropriate version of Aleph One (a more recent version than on this page can be found here). That's all you need. Install as shown and you're good to go. HighRes texture packs found there are optional but definitely make the game look much better than without. Go for it.

Also, if you scroll down, you'll see that there are six fan made scenarios available for download (despite what is implied, note that all scenarios linked are in fact cross-platform, except for Morgana's Revenge. There is a cross-platform beta version of this in the works which can be found here).

Other links that may be of interest:
Marathon Trilogy Release Page
Marathon Open Source Page
Fileball, a depository for tons of maps and additions.
marathon.bungie.org, an all encompassing fansite for everything Marathon.

Ok, so that wasn't a brief description, but I wanted to be thorough.

Before I forget, I now have somewhere around 170+ songs for Frets on Fire. That's including all the songs from Guitar Hero I & II. So if anybody wants to take the bait then shoot some PM missiles... or maybe I'll just put up a link. Though if I recall correctly that's against the rules... (b'o')b

Mirai Gen · 12-11-2006, 04:56 AM

Is it a Torrent file? Because Frets On Fire isn't illegal in and of itself...

Better just PM Shiney.

EDIT: And while you're at it, let me know what you do have for FoF.

If you've got steam, then
http://gmod.garry.tv/download.php
is an incredible HL 2 mod.
I'm surprised no one has put this, but I can't get a link. My I.E. is too new.
go to Mapleglobal.com ( must have Internet explorer)
MAPLESTORY!! <(^.^)>
(it is a cutesy Korean game, but those Koreans did it right!)

Axl · 12-11-2006, 10:45 PM

They're 3 rar/zip files which I uploaded on Megaupload.

I was gonna type out the list for you... but then I decided to be a fucking genius and take this screenshot:

linked for being pretty damn big

And I don't post the files because the song files are being distributed by consent. Playing GH songs for free probably wouldn't be considered legal (barring owning a copy I suppose).

EDIT: ha, just realized i'm missing one GH2 song, Arterial Black by Drist, (bonus)

Adventure game with thousands of people all over the globe, with monsters to kill and money to earn.

Its in JAVA but its MASSIVE!..if you give it a chance you will most likely get very addicted and play it all the time..like me

Its hard to describe, just give it a try and find out for yourself :P

Best of all...its FREE and you DONT have to download anything!

It's a fun text game, like the gamebooks of old, set in a wold of magic and such. It's constantly being updated, and it's fun to play if you have the patience to read it.

Two pyramid scheme empire MMORPG mostly text strategy web browser games.
http://darkthrone.com/
http://www.kingsofchaos.com/

Similarly (forget if it's pyramidscheme), but with a single character.
http://carnageblender.com/

Similarly (not pyramidscheme), renowned for humor value.
http://kingdomofloathing.com

Classic FF (I-VI) Webbrowser MMORPG-ized. The administrator type guy stopped paying for the server a while ago, so its on-off-ness fluctuates based on season. Not very full most of the time.
http://astralle.phpwebhosting.com/hte2/

Another empire webbrowser MMORPG type game. Not pyramidscheme.
http://medievalbattles.com/

Something like Runescape's nemesis. FF-style TBS RPG in Flash, no real MMO part of it that I know of.
http://www.battleon.com

Some more primitive short-term game sites. If FFT/7/12/10/Disgaea/2/DQ8 were cakes/pies/pastries, this would be candy.

Some contain more sophisticated candy bars than others. Find out for yourself which ones!

Extending the metaphor, this candy contains crack cocaine.

And now, we come to the disgusting low fat, low sodium, no sugar "healthy snacks" part of the metaphor that no one likes.
