Welcome to Freeware Friday, a weekly column showcasing excellent games that you can play free of charge!

There's nothing quite like just going insane and murdering everyone. In a game. Not in real life. You know I meant in a game, right? The Suffering, one of Midway's best releases (and easily their best release from 2004) was recently re-released as an ad-supported free game. It's bloody, more than a little scary, and manages to merge third-person action and scares in an oddly compelling way. It was good enough to warrant a great sequel as well as a movie in production. But what makes it so good that Midway would decide to release it for free?

Love free stuff? Then check out The Suffering, a survival horror shooter from 2004. In it, you play as an inmate named Torque held at a maximum security prison. Turns out, there were some gruesome experiments and executions held there, fueling the dark forces that are taking over now. Did we also mention that you can transform into a giant, rampaging monster? This game has it all, and it's available now - complete and totally free to play.
