Quake Live. Play Quake 3 Arena in your browser! You do have to register and download a plugin, but it's a lot of fun.

Stepmania

It's a "rhythm video game", based on Dance Dance Revolution. You need to get songs (and themes/skins, commentator voices, 3d models, arrows, etc.) somewhere else though, the official site have only a few of them there.

Download here

It's a great game, especially if you're a fan of DDR, the sheer number of songs and other custom content is just great. The game itself and the basic files doesn't exceed 30MB, but with all the other things I've got the Stepmania folder is almost 2GB.

Cortex Command is like Contra with a twist. It is also virtually free, although buying it supports the cause.
