GREAT GAMES at GAME HOUSE
More Info About Download Free Games
Download Free Games has been a trusted place to download games since 2002. When we first launched, there weren’t many sites offering games to download outside of some of the major sites like Download.com, PopCap, Gamehouse, and RealArcade. Our desire was to bring the best shareware and freeware games available into one location with a selection that was completely unique. Toward the end of 2009, we added our 1,000th game and have one of the most unique selections of free game downloads on the Internet.
In the last couple years, we’ve greatly enhanced our freeware games section to include over 110 free games that have no time limits, no ads, and no spyware. One of our most popular freeware games is our PacMan download which had over 100,000 visitors over the weekend of May 21-23, 2010 due to the 30th birthday of the game and promotion on Google’s home page. Chicken Invaders, a parody remake of the arcade classic Space Invaders, is also extremely popular.
We also have an enormous selection of over 250 free online games you can play right in your web browser. One of our most popular is a version of Frogger, the classic arcade game where you control a frog that must cross a busy road and a river full of dangers. Our Wheel of Fortune online game, based on the hit TV show, is also very popular.
Some of the most loved games on our site are shareware, which means they have free trials you can download and play for free for a limited time. Family Feud, another game based on a TV game show, is a favorite. Our Simulation Games, games which mimic some aspect of real life, are also extremely popular. If strategy is more of your interest, Worms 2, a game where you control a small group of deadly worms, has been a big hit for several years. Other popular titles over the years have been Diner Dash, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Zuma Deluxe, and American Civil War.
We hope we can offer you one of the best download game sites on the Internet with our selection of over 1,200 free games to download. Have fun

Gazillion Entertainment has been quiet about the details of its plans for its super hero themed Marvel Universe MMO game since it was first announced over two years ago. That all changed late on Thursday at a press conference that was streamed at the Marvel.com web site.
The main revelation from the press conference was that the game, currently in development at Gazillion's Secret Identity studio, will be a free-to-play game when it launches. This shows more evidence that this business model is becoming more and more mainstream compared to the older monthly subscription model.
It was also announced that Brian Michael Bendis, one of the most prolific writers for Marvel Comics, will be the head writer for the Marvel Universe MMO game. Bendis's credits include writing a number of Marvel's big crossover event mini-series including House of M, Secret Invasion and Siege.
According to the live stream, the game will feature a "grand, epic tour, a reimagining of some of the biggest events in Marvel history. " One big difference between this game and Sony Online's recently launched DC Universe Online is that the Marvel MMO will allow players to play as the mainline Marvel characters. Yep, instead of creating your own character to team up with the Marvel heroes you will play as Captain America, Thor, Iron Man or Spider-Man, among others. Also Dr. Doom will be the main bad guy in the game's story.
The game will be released for the PC but Gazillion is not commenting if the game will be browser-based or not. They are also not commenting on the game's release date yet.
