All that should be in your kde3game directory is the following
ruby# ll
total 98
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel    654 Jan 28 15:19 Makefile
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     66 Jan 28 15:19 distinfo
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     41 Nov  2  1997 pkg-comment
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel    123 Jul 18  2002 pkg-descr
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  95614 Jan 28 15:19 pkg-plist

If you had done a "make fetch" from /usr/ports/games/kdegames3 if would 
have put kdegames-3.1.tar.bz2 in your /usr/ports/distfiles/KDE 
directory. If you have a partial for 3.1 in there, things work very 
poorly. 

Now, a portupgrade -uf kde3games should have done the samething as the 
"make fetch". Going to freebsd.org, however, was very similar to 
bitching about not finding a new BMW at your local Mercedes dealership.
