Freeware Game Pick: Hollow Point (DigiPen)
Hollow Point is a top-down shooter created by a team of DigiPen students, which plays a bit like a combination of Gauntlet and Smash TV. The exit portal for each level is usually guarded by a horde of enemies, but to your advantage there are plenty of weapons and power-up items to acquire as well.
Installing the game also automatically updates your operating system with the latest version of DirectX, the .NET Framework 2.0 and XNA 2.0 runtime.

It doesn't seem to work for me. Might be a Vista problem...

annoying installation...
first will ask for net framework 3.5 (you must download a "few" extra megabytes).
And later it download and install directx 9 sdk (why? install directx 9c again?).
And next this ask for to install the microsoft xna framework.
Finally the installer will ask for restart.
Net framework is a nice framework for asp.net and for cf.net , the rest is just a bunch of bloatware, even my old vb6 can kick ass
many .net applications (and don't ask for many useless files).
ps :and the program hang in the same point indicated :-P (xp sp2)
