the 4 games on the unit are decent, but no more. you might be able to get better ones though. You have to realize that unless you have an external keyboad AND some glasses (unless you have awesome eyes) you will not want to do too much work on this unit because while the screen is awesome its size is still small. I saw that you can get a version of abiword and gnumeric on this, but I frankly would use a laptop for that.

SSH works great and there are editors like VIM so you can code just fine (I would not try compiling on a 300+MHz proc though).
