While many will argue the Windows Vista Ultimate Extras program failed miserably there were two quality games released via the program called Tinker and Hold'Em. Today Microsoft announced on the Games For Windows site both "premium" games will be released for free. No release date has been announced yet and it is unclear if any addition versions of Windows will be supported.
