World Of Goo is a must have for Puzzle Lovers
,----[ Quot ]
| World of Goo is a puzzle game with a highly efficient physics engine. It has
| won many accolades from across the world since its release. It was initially
| available for Wii, Windows and Mac, but lately, its available for Linux as
| well.
|
| When i first tried this cute little game in my ubuntu machine, i was amazed
| by its slickness and the fun factor. Though i never bought the original
| version(i am not much into gaming), i really liked the demo version. This is
| indeed a must have for Puzzle lovers.

Aisleriot - Solitaire on Steroids
,----[ Quote ]
| Despite all the people who claim to be productive at work, or those who claim
| to be more than a casual gamer, there is a lot, and I do mean a lot, of
| people out there who are either casual gamers, or they love to play various
| solitaire card games on the computer.
|
| Of all the program types in use on all the OS's of the world, computer
| solitaire, regardless of its flavor, is the single most installed type of
| program of all since computers began. Not even the web browser can match the
| total number of computers that have either shipped with, or somehow acquired
| a solitaire game. Every copy of Windows, since 3.0 has had a copy of
| solitaire in it, and even before then you could get solitaire games on Dos
| and Unix systems.
|
| But if computer solitaire is so ubiquitous, what sets one apart from the
| other? Well, three things I'd say: The game(s) offered, program stability,
| and ease of use. But what if you're using Linux? Of all the OS's out there,
| Linux is the one with the least number of solitaire games on it. That's not
| to say that it has the least games, because there are dozens of other games
| to fill the void, but solitaire is not one of them. Normally anyways.

Myst Online goes fully open-source
,----[ Quote ]
| In a startling move, Cyan Worlds has decided to release all of URU Live's
| assets to the public as open source. This includes the client and server
| architecture. Amazingly, they aren't simply releasing it into the wild and
| leaving it alone; Cyan has decided to hold one Myst Online server shard open
| for players to have a centralized world, despite the fact that others can now
| freely put up their own Myst Online servers.
