Free/Almost Free Online Multiplayer Games

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone could recommend any free/nearly free online multiplayer games. A few friends and I are looking for some good games over the internet. Preferably something other than a MMORPG as you have to devote a lot of time to those in order to keep up with each other. That said, I'd still take MMORPG's as suggestions.

I sometimes check out demos that have multiplayer. For example "Pariah" is one I'm trying this weekend. Register at FilePlanet to find a bunch of demos.

The problem you'll run into for free MMORPG is that someone has to run the servers and build the world so it's not likely gonna be free.

Good luck.

Yea need to byut the game itself, but after that playing online is free.
WIth the game being a few years old now, you can find or about $20 or less.

yeah except it's kind of old and no one plays it much anymore.

i think halo 2 and counterstrike are good but they're not really in this genre

i just tried subscribing to something called Second Life till it said it needed a credit card number or mobile phone number, and I dropped out.

ill check out some of those up there

stronghold i checked out that earth2025 thing and it sucks. it's one of those turn based imagination games with no freaking pictures. i played one of those for a day and lost patience with it. you need to get a life if you've been enjoying that for the last 4 years

www.conqueronline.com is a great one and it free
astoina is but cost 10$ a month
runescapes stinks don't play it ever

Comments on this post
seaker agrees: RUNESCAPE IS RUBISH (my opinion) try TIBIA
ittle disagrees: runsecape is fun, the ppl who dont like it are ppl that really stink! at it. try exploring RS
ultimate_user_name agrees: Runescape is interesting at first, even though people are unbelievably mean, then as soon as your strong enough to gain any respect it's become boring and you either buy the game or live in a "handicapped" free world.
draco-mancer disagrees: Runescape is da bomb! as a member, you can do limitless things! try it!
