I’ve came across a website that pretty much gives games away! You donate as much as you like, from $1.00+ (maybe even less!) and you get access to download full and legal games which includes World of Goo, Aquaria, Gish, Lugaru and Penumbra. To be honest I haven’t heard of the other games and only really wanted World of Goo, but I will be trying them to see if they’re any good as I have access to all of these games. I donated $5 just to see if it actually worked, which was around £3 at the time and a few minutes later I received an email with the details to access these games for free.
After downloading World of Goo I immediately installed it to make sure it was the real thing. No registration key was required and it was the full game, not some crappy time limited demo. The default resolution is set to 800 x 600 which caused some problems as it refused to load, so after tweaking the settings file to use my resolution of choice it worked absolutely fine.

If you just love playing games and don’t already own Portal like myself, you’ll love the current offer by steam. Simply go to the following link and get Portal completely free until the 24th May 2010: http://store.steampowered.com/freeportal/
About The Game
Portal™ is a new single player game from Valve. Set in the mysterious Aperture Science Laboratories, Portal has been called one of the most innovative new games on the horizon and will offer gamers hours of unique gameplay.

Players must solve physical puzzles and challenges by opening portals to maneuvering objects, and themselves, through space.

I’ve been catching up with TV on SeeSaw a lot lately and I have to admit, this is an amazing service. For those of you that enjoy watching TV and have missed an episode, check out SeeSaw.com. They have a huge selection of shows from the BBC, 4OD and Channel Five.
One of the shows I watch a lot, and only started watching because of SeeSaw is Skins. They have every single episode of Skins on this website, which makes it ideal for someone that wants to watch them all, yet hasn’t been able to see it from the start.
Here is what SeeSaw say about themselves:
SeeSaw is a new online TV service. We believe watching TV should be fun and easy. We want you to get as much enjoyment as possible from your TV viewing. So, if you really love TV, SeeSaw is the place to come.
BT Vision offer a similar service to their customers, however it’s limited to only their broadband customers and isn’t free. SeeSaw is growing a lot and you can use it on any PC no matter which internet provider you use. As long as you have atleast a 1MB connection, you’ll be able to enjoy many shows on demand.
I won’t be surprised if many of the popular broadcasters such as BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Five partner with SeeSaw rather than running their own individual services. This would actually be a great idea, as it would reduce the bandwidth costs and their viewers would only need to visit one website to catch up.
