Default Downloading games...

I was seeing if I could find anything under programs for computer games, but all of them were about 2,000 KB, that's smaller than an average song. Are there games to download, or are they illegal?

At first I worried about size, but does it take up any more room on your computer to download it than to install the game?

i'm not really sure mate,

but i think it does,
as i got a prompt from one of the games saying i had inadequate disk space,

but when i checked the space through windows it looked like i had more than double free space than that already inuse.

Obviously previewing will not work, but when I tried it it sent the error message: "The compressed (Zipped) Folder is invalid or corrupted. Is this normal?

You can't preview programs.

if you want to know if a file is Good then right click on it in the search results screen and select 'Bitzi web lookup',

this will show you feed back from other users who have downloaded this file before, and will let you know if it works or not.

go for it,
better than wasting your time and finding out after downloading it,

there are a few other good working games, see my first post.

I can't get the game to run, it wants to "extract the files", I do this and after it just asks me to do it again. I also restarted my computer but still no luck.
