I have used an older version of it in the past, and it was great! Many tutorials, samples and a fairly large community.. but it is not free.. However, if you plan to make money with the game in the end, then you will find the price very affordable anyway.. Blitz3D is only $100 US., and it is well worth it! You can even download the free demos and check it out for yourself, get acquainted with it before you decide!
I highly recommend it, if you are serious and plan to make money with your game!

that is a good one, but I want something free. If it's not 3d, at least looking three d.You can try Game Maker 6.0. While its focus is primarily 2-Dimensional games, it has quite a lot of 3-D functions that can help you create a simple game in maybe a couple hours (which isn't bad at all). The only downside to this from your perspective is there is an ~$20 registration fee.

The link above should show you some tools to get you started, not all of the tools listed on that page are free.
darkbasic is fairly good, it's closer to programming than other game creation software though. their website is darkbasic.com. You can download a demo version for free and if you pay a bit you can get a version that comes with premade meshes and textures and lots of other goodies.
apart from that, if it's a completely free 3d game creation system you want, i'm working on one at the moment, so if you can wait another 5 years or so, and i'll email you when it's done
nah i'm seriously working on one; progress is going slowly, but i'll post here again when i get some of it done.
hope i've helped.
good luck!
Based on some of the functions in Game Maker 6.1, you could import the models you make in Blender (so it won't look so much like a Game Maker 3d game), but your best bet is to use darkbasic or Blitz3D or the Torque3D engine. Blitz and Torque are ~$100, which is cheap considering what you want to do (and how much work you won't have to do if you buy either). darkbasic will more than likely take some time to get used to (especially if you don't have any programming experience), but it is powerful and cheap.

but id does have some handy basic tools that I could use with another program, am I right?I haven't personally used Blender, so I suppose you're welcome to find out.

but you can't build a game with it.Woa Woa Woa, just a minute, yes you can create 3d models in blender and you certanly CAN make games with it. However Trap17 won't be of much help in the matter, I recomend http://www.elysiun.com/ the blender community, I believe the offical one now that Blender is Open Source. With Blender you will be able to make games that are sutable for sale, the question will YOU be able to make games, I know I certanly can't! That aside it is an extremly powerful program, and in constantly under development, in fact it is part of google's summer of code!

But you got here, just a tiny tad bit earlier...
Anyways, yeah, I used to use Blender, but I couldn't get any good models, so I've given up while I learn to do 3D models. Blender is VERY good. I just wish the modeller was as good as GMax (made by the people who did 3D Studio Max (the best modelling program out there)
It's an online database of 3D Game Engines Free and paid and let me tell you it has some greate ones in there.
There's no free program that can get you anything near what I would consider decent. There are several out there, but the end product will ALWAYS look like junk.
Blender is a decent 3D modeling program, but let me warn you that 3D Modeling is FREAKING HARD!!! It's taken me forever just to be able to do something that looks semi-professional... And that's using a real program like Maya or 3DSMAX...
I've only used Game Maker for 2D games, but it works well for those.
When I first started making 3D games, I used DarkBASIC. It is an excellent choice and can create some decent looking results.
However, though I hate to dash your hopes, it's impossible to create a professional game for the computer on your own. You could have done that ten years ago, but no more. Games nowadays are created by teams of hundreds or thousands of professionals. When I was younger I thought I could create a professional 3D game as well, but let me tell you from experience - It's not gonna happen. It's not possible anymore. Sadly, the days of indie PC development are over. It is for this reason that I have moved on to developing for the GBA... I can create 2D games that are state of the art.
But seriously, you're not gonna be able to get money out of a homemade 3D game...
Sorry to be so blunt...
Now go outside and have a wonderful day...

i believe Blender has a new patch where you can create the games now but you will need to look up blender to find more info on it, but the good thing about blender is that it is a free software and it is a very good one at that.. tutorials there are a few sites but they teach alot of what you need to know to get started with them.. so check them out at blender.org

Actually, you can make 3D games with blender, but you need to know coding... Blender is a 3D modeling & Animation, plus a game enging w/physics and has a built in compiler. I have example game, well, not really games but i have a FPS example that shoots out yellow things at objects, and a cool car example too... I have the latest version, 2.42.

Free 3d Game Tool?
Replying to cangor
From personal experiance it is possible to create 3Dgames but it takes years. I'm thinking of creating a online game like runescape using blender and python I need 5 Programers who is willing to learn Python. I will also need 5 graphics artists who is willing to learn Blender. I will create the server and Client and need 5 people to help me do this. So a total of 15 people and I would appreciate programers that can do 3D graphics on blender and visa versa. I would like to know if the game should be based in medievel or what. Anyone interested can e-mail me at wayne_312 att live.Com I will only be able to pay when the game is created. Every1 who helpes will free membership forever. So only 15-20 people who would like to help. 5 graphics artists and 5 programers and 5 people who do both and some people to help create the server and client.
