ESPN Streak for the Cash

ESPN Streak for the Cash is a great time waster for all of you sports lovers out there. It is a simple game run by ESPN with prizes for the two "best" players. The rules are simple. ESPN gives you a list of matchups on their web site. You pick what will happen. If you are right, you are now streaking for the cash. The longest streak of the month wins you $100,000 dollars, and the player with the most wins of the month will win $2,500. Now, lets be realistic. The odds are against you actually winning a lot of money. But this is a daily time waster which is actually pretty fun. The matchups aren't your boring pick a team plus the spread. It may be something like an over/under. Or will a two player combo on the Utah Jazz score more points that a two player combo on the San Antonio Spurs? Will the Kansas Jayhawks hit more 3 pointers than the winning margin of the Lakers game? As you can see, the matchups can get a little crazy. You will be addicted from the start. There is a group feature which allows you to create a group for your friends. Who doesn't like to smack talk over who is the smartest better? ESPN will keep track of your records and allow you to see how your friends have done as well. So log on now and start your streak.

Flyff

Flyff is a 3D MMORPG developed by a Korean company called Aeonsoft. Flyff is short for Fly for Fun. The main difference between Flyff and other 3D MMORPGs is the flying system. Flyff puts a lot of emphasis on group work. No character can do everything by itself. A lord system allows characters to vote a lord to rule each server for 2 week periods. There are grouping and guild systems which allow and encourage cooperation among characters. According to Aeonsoft, there are 5 million people already playing to join. There are four classes to choose from which split into 2 complementary classes at level 60. All servers allow PvP combat in an arena setting. However, if you play the Demian server you can fight your peers with great consequences whenever you would like. Flyff allows you to raise one of 7 different pets to help you gain advantages. Another feature allows players to own private shops for extra cash. Flyff is a great 3D MMORPG with beautiful scenery and graphics and plenty of features to keep you entertained. The best part is the whole game is free. You just have to download a client to play through.

Tales of Pirates is a 3D massively multi player online game based on 5,000 years of pirates. Develop your character among wondrous cities, beautiful landscapes, and on the high seas.

Evony

Evony is a browser-based medieval war and city building game. It is by far the best in its genre that I have come across. You can view one of your cities (where you build baracks, cottages, etc.), your city surroundings (where you upgrade resource fields, or the main map (where you can find NPC's or real people to attack). You start as a simple player with one city. As you gain title and medals from attacking and expanding, you can start to build more cities. Eventually, you can have up to 10 cities in your empire. There is a very helpful quest mode to teach you the basics of the game. There is also an in-game chat session where you can ask questions in the newbie chat or discuss strategy within your alliance chat. Alliances can grow to 100 people deep so war can be very fun if your alliance is helpful. There is a forums area where you can read guides or post smack talk. This game will keep you entertained for hours a day or you can play it for 15 minutes a day. How much you want to play is your choice. The game is free to play, but you can buy game coins for a slight advantage. One of the cool features of Evony is they give you a spin on a "prize wheel" every day where you can win some of the features that can also be bought. This helps to even the playing field between free members and paying members. You can be a force without paying a dime. There is a good defense system which allows you to build up your walls just like castles in the Medieval times. It is very possible to defend yourself against large attacks unlike other games. If you enjoy building up cities to use for war, this is the game for you. You will not be disappointed.
