Online games with Vista?

Does Vista come with built-in games?

The reason I ask is that I am studying the educational aspects of computer
games (as part of an M.Sc.) and I want to play around with a few simple
games and I remembered seeing some simple games when I installed Vista but I
can't find them any more.

I am particularly interested in online games that I can play against human
opponents.

I am sure I saw such games but the only one I can now see are stand-alone
games.

Have I removed them? Or where they never there?

Cheers.

Bobby

Thanks Carey. These are all single-player games so I presume Vista has no
online/multiplayer games?

Didn't XP come with some online games?

Cheers from an autumnal Scotland.
