Actually, yes way. GameTap is a website offering both free and premium downloadable PC games, from some of the best known franchises of this generation. The service is also completely legal and entirely secure, so no lawyers knocking on your door or viruses knocking about in your computer. True, you need to sign up to the service before you can access anything (there are three different packages: two are paid subscriptions, and one is a free service), and you also have to install a browser plugin to download stuff once you are signed up, but other than that, the process is pretty simple.

The site is currently offering thirty-six games for free, including big titles like S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Shadow of Chernobyl, Battlestations: Midway, Hitman: Blood Money and Codename 47, Just Cause, Deus Ex: Game of the Year Edition and Tomb Raider: Legend. Get them while you still can from http://www.gametap.com/.

A quick note: You’ll need a very speedy internet connection to get anything near the estimated download times GameTap predict for the free games. You can still download using a slow(er) connection, but it will take a long time to download a game.
