Here they are:
Far Cry (http://www.fileplanet.com/180410/180000/fileinfo/Far-Cry-Full-Game-%5BFree-Game---Ad-Supported%5D)
Prince of Persia: Sands of Time (http://www.fileplanet.com/180411/180000/fileinfo/Prince-of-Persia:-Sands-of-Time-Full-Game-%5BFree-Game---Ad-Supported%5D)
Rayman: Raving Rabbids (http://www.fileplanet.com/180428/180000/fileinfo/Rayman-Raving-Rabbids-%5BFree-Game---Ad-Supported%5D)


What do you think of such a move?

Myself, I'm not sure I like it. But then, I've always hated ads.

Sounds like a great way for somebody with less funds to play the game and even better way to try the game before you buy it.
As long as you can get the add free version I think it is a very good thing.

Reminds me of when Yahoo and Kmart got together and provided free dialup with ads. Sure, the ads kind of sucked, but considering that I was kind of hard pressed to be able to afford even dial-up, having that little bit was something of a blessing.

Mmh, I might go for it if it's some kind of ads on loading screens or something and it doesn't interrupt the action. And it would need to be more recent games. I mean, you can get Far Cry for $8.43 on Amazon.ca . The bandwidth to download the game is worth more than that.
