ZSNES

GTA - Wild Metal - GTA2
"Respect is everything. In 1999, Rockstar Games and Rockstar North (then known as DMA Design) furthered the groundbreaking gameplay concepts established just two years prior in the original Grand Theft Auto - with the release of GTA2. GTA2 expanded on the top-down, open-ended crime world gameplay formula with a host of new features including the advent of multiple rival gangs – seven, to be exact, including the Yakuza, Scientists, Looneys, Rednecks, Zaibatsu, the Russian Mob and Hare Krishnas. Earn your respect with each gang. Reap the benefits with all manner of shady work-for-hire gigs contracted your way. And climb your way to the top of the criminal pile.
Now, longtime Grand Theft Auto fans can revisit this classic entry in the series - and new jacks who missed out on this early franchise title can further discover Grand Theft Auto’s roots - absolutely free. GTA2 has been completely optimized for play on modern PCs and is available gratis for all registrants to the Rockstar Games mailing list (rest assured your information will not be shared with any third parties, you will only receive information from Rockstar). Simply fill out the form below and check your email for a direct link to the file (353 MB .zip file, includes install .exe, readme .txt file, and a .pdf of the original PC game manual)."
Grand Theft Auto 1, Wild Metal, and Grand Theft Auto 2 -- all full-version, all free to download. These are Windows games, although both GTA games run perfectly in Linux using WINE or Cedega.

Bang! Howdy
"Bang! Howdy is fast-paced tactical strategy in a wacky Wild West world."
...That's a tongue-twister. This game is turn-based but has a RTS feel, with some role-playing elements thrown in for good measure. A steampunk-themed multi-player game, the more ranked battles you win against other human players, the more cash you get and the more unique units you can recruit.
It seems to be totally supported with marketing (they sell your info to marketing research companies), so you might want to sign up with the email address you usually use to sign up for things that'll spam you. As a result, you must be at least 13 to sign up.
This game is cross platform: Runs on Windows, Linux & Mac equally well.
