In my opinion, torrents suck. I've never gotten anything good out of a torrent.
Anywho, the internet is a plethora of all sorts of game if you know where to look. eDonkey has some games like Solar Winds, Alien Shooter, and the like, though you have to be patient. If you're looking for games in the format of old games, Neopets has dozens of games that are mostly like old games with a little twist. Plus you can buy things with the points you get off your games. Some other good gaming sites are
www.ezone.com,
www.coffeebreakarcade.com, and
www.flashplayer.com. Free DOWNLOADABLE games are a bit more tricky. Hmm.
http://www.freewarehome.com/ has some. Besides that, I'd have to take specific requests for what kind of games you're looking for.
