Okay, it was a corny title - so shoot me (online only please! I have a family to feed!).
Which, in an award deserving seque brings me to - Online gaming.
Can’t spend the bucks on the latest FPS? Or maybe you don’t like the competitive games because you suck at ‘em? (Don’t worry, me too - until now!).
Quake Live lets you learn in single player and then compete in multiplayer - all with top notch graphics, all in your browser, and all free!

You always have the option of bot-play so you’re really the only one
playing. You can choose between the Training version (top) where you
can practice all of the special moves everyone always talks about, or
the simulated live game version where you can set the specifics.

This is a screenshot of me getting ready to kill two bots from the
other team - it really does feel like multiplayer with the bots jumping
around like madmen. Why am I playing bots? Well, did I mention that
I sucked?

When you ARE ready to compete, there are a LOT of open games -
Notice the tiny little drag-bar on the “Open Games” list!
