Origin has a rotating free game. I've gotten Peggle, one of the classic C&C games, and a few others from it. You have to install and use Origin, but hey, free games :v:

lovely planet is kind an odd 3d platformer. it's technically a shooter but like it's more about precision execution and speed-clears and stuff

Has anyone tried playing Steep through Uplay? It was free back in January on Epic. The game seems super buggy and unusable with a gamepad. Buttons sometimes don't respond, and sometimes buttons trigger an action from a different mode of the game: for example, when you're in the menu, pressing RB/LB to switch to a different UI tab can trigger the in-game action associated with those buttons. I tried messing around with controls settings but I couldn't get it to not be completely broken.

Oh gross, Offworld Trading Company is published by Brad Wardell, noted creep. Please consider not clicking the buy button, as it might reduce the take he's gonna rake in from the promo ;)

or stick to what you believe in instead of this meaningless petition to give up

the point of "there is no ethical consumption..." is that, if an economic system is designed to be free of ethics, it is not reasonable to morally judge the consumption choices of the people who are subjected to that system. it has nothing to do with what is in the hearts and minds of the people who find themselves having to make those economic choices

GoNNER is pretty fun (from Epic store). It's a bit of a more action-oriented Spelunky. I don't know if there is an overall structure to playthroughs or if it goes on forever, but the combat mechanics are fun and it has a cool visual style. It also doesn't go out of its way to explain all the bigger game mechanics, but after half an hour I easily picked figured out a bunch of them, and it was enjoyable to puzzle them out.

I got it through the Uplay app. When I searched for it, the search popup still said $14.99 but when I clicked through to its store page it had a "get for free" button.

As someone who has never played any pinball simulator, except years ago when I tried that open source one, FX3 surprised me with its level of realism. It feels a lot closer to a real table compared to most video game pinballs.

The Xbox game pass (like Netflix but for games) is in beta on PC and you can get a trial month for $1. Yeah, it's not free, but it's a lot of top tier stuff for the price.

So are these the only games you can play for free with the new deal? I have tried reading about Stadia multiple times and the whole thing just confuses me.

You just click the "buy" button and it adds it to your library permanently. You don't have to download it until you want to play it.

Pac-Man now in US. It doesn't seem to be showing just yet though.

Pac Man Championship is extremely fun, for those of you who haven't played it. The main modes of the game are prearranged time-attack and score-attack mazes where you zoom around the board, chasing sequences of dots and setting up massive combos.

yeah i should probably have pointed out as part of this discussion that ARPGs are very weirdly to taste and you might end up liking it for poorly defined or literally no reason because fans of the genre frequently have a difficult time agreeing on what makes things good and what makes things bad.
