Free Ad Supported Games

Hi, just came across these and thought some people might be intrested in them. I haven't tested these myself so I don't know what the ads are like or where they appear.

Far Cry
Prince of Persia: Sands of Time
Rayman Raving Rabbids

Let us know what they're like if anyone tries them out.

Well the second two there are awful awful games. I wouldn't play them if they were paying me to.

Tom|Nbk · 1 Sep 2007 at 00:20

Think I'll try Far Cry

I'm seriously hoping these 'ad supported' games aren't 'legal' adware

DiRT and some other Codemasters game are coming out for free as well.

can u get this from anywhere else, for those who dont have fileplanet account?

*edit* found the free registration

ArmyofHarmony · 1 Sep 2007 at 09:53

fileplanet is unbelivably crap

I just download everything from torrent sites (legal things, instead of going to the official website), less hassle lol

Basically just in the loading screens. Seems to crash my computer for a little while as they load, then it comes back to life tro play the advert, then seems to die for another couple of mins. But once u get in the game no ads can be seen!

The adverts are maccy d's btw!!

Sniper123 · 1 Sep 2007 at 13:18

Hows the ads work?Some kind of spyware scanning for new ads ect?

dan^uk · 1 Sep 2007 at 13:22

Another one for the list..

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon

Pixel · 1 Sep 2007 at 13:32

Try updating the game with the latest patch, if that doesn't work you may have to set affinity of the game .exe to one core (assuming you have dual core). You can do this in taskmanger.
