"Armagetron is a multiplayer game in 3d that attempts to emulate and expand on the lightcycle sequence from the movie Tron. It's an old school arcade game slung into the 21st century. Highlights include a customizable playing arena, HUD, unique graphics, and AI bots. For the more advanced player there are new game modes and a wide variety of physics settings to tweak as well.

"Winner of the Assembly Demo Party 2006, Frets on Fire is a music video game that uses the keyboard to play along with scrolling on-screen musical notes to complete a song. The player has to imagine the keyboard as a guitar and pick it up to play. One hand will be used to press the 'frets' (F1 to F5) and another will be used to press the 'picks' (Shift or Enter). Colored markers that appears are to be played by pressing 'frets' of the correct color and 'picks' at the correct moment. There are also song editors and tutorials featured in the game. This game is really addictive.
