Liberated Games Launches
Crusader writes "Two LinuxGames staff members have launched Liberated Games, a site devoted to cataloguing full commercial titles that have been released for free by the developer or publisher, either with the full source code or without. The current list is available here; the site tracks releases for all major computer platforms (Windows, Mac OSX, Linux), so feel free to submit any missing games to the list."
Sweet! Now I don't have to liberate them myself!
The original generic sig.
Now if we could just liberate them from the /. effect.

... that LinuxGames has two staff members!
... the server's /.ed already.
Correction: The server has become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
Maybe you can add some features, recompile the source and name the game "Duke Nukem' Forever".

Fortunately, some upstanding citizens have realized their responsibility and have formed underground networks to liberate the poor captives and transport them into safety.
As always, the officials are after these groups of freedom fighters, and many have fallen, but the rest fight on. And there is good news too: in the past, the captive games, once freed, were taken to secret safe houses (called "ftp sites" by the underground), but nowadays, a number of networks are moving the captives around constantly, making it almost impossible to recapture them.
Three hurrays for the brave freedom fighters, past, present and future members of Razor, Myth, Khan, Origin and others. And to the brave, upstanding citizens, who risk arrest helping liberated games continuing their run on the wild. Hurray ! Hurray ! Hurray!
Most games are liberated, some (like Half-Life 2) before they are even released ;).
Forget magic. Any technology distinguishable from divine power is insufficiently advanced.
I wish more of "you linux geeks" would check out the list of Linux games, then maybe you'd be too busy playing games to slashdot every link in the articles I am trying to read! :-)
