There are lots of free MMO and MMORPG games out there that are free. Some though you will have to spend money though to get certain things. That is how they make their money. Expect a download of 1GB to 8GB in size to install the game. Lord of the Rings is about 8GB after patches.

There are many free games at gpotato.com and Lord of the Rings is Free to play, but you have to pay to have a mount if you dont want to run everywhere on foot of have to pay to travel from city to city on horses that act like flight points in World of Warcraft.

I am unfamiliar with the worms game. But the name of it brings back memories of Worm War 1 for Atari2600 many many years ago when I was a kid.

Make sure these websites are reputable and you have an update antivirus system installed. You don't want to download malicious software that claim to be computer games.

Also to mention is that for free online games that require registration, I use a junk mailbox to register, and for each game I have a different password to logon, and I keep a password listing for all my games in a small notebook. This is best for any type of online registration is to change it up. Also I love how these registrations ask for you to enter password reset security info like maiden name, friends, pet names, etc that are also used for online banking. "Do you trust giving out that information with those sites???? I DONT and so I give bogus info to make the script happy to register."   2 people I know have gotten hacked by using the same info between multiple sites. Some hackers plant sites out there looking for people to register and then they use those credentials against a list of sites like banks, credit cards, e-mail accounts, etc

There are loads of games online that aren't browser games (more MMOGs or client games) that you need a download of an installation for. I would suggest Super Hero Squad Online or Fortune Online, both client-based and good fun!

I'd recommend Nexon's "Combat Arms".  It's basically Cal of Duty Modern Warfare 2 with better guns, graphics, and gore.  It's free, you just need to make a free account with nexon.  Check me out, I'm "TheHives5"

I played Combat Arms for a while but it had to many cheaters on it so I gave up. Which is a shame because it was fun while it lasted.

Hey!

There are a lot of great client-based games available that aren't like browser games at all (high-end graphics, 3D etc.) that are still free - my favourite would be Super Hero Squad Online (based on the marvel comics...) but there are endless, like mentioned above, a lot of RPGs!
