AssaultCube: FPS Fun, Unburdened by Plot
,----[ Quote ]
| If the thought of free frags makes your trigger finger twitch, take a look at
| AssaultCube. This open-source first person shooter doesn't offer much in the
| way of snazzy graphics or major frills, and there's no storyline or plot.
| Just a selection of maps where you can hunt or be hunted by other players or
| computer-controlled bots. But the multi-platform AssaultCube can run on
| Windows, Linux or Macs, and its minimum system requirements are so low that
| just about any computer should be able to run it (Pentium III 500Mhz and
| nVidia GeForce 256 or equivalents, 128MB RAM). Plus, the entire game fits
| into a compact 40MB download.

Come Play This New Linux-Native Game With Us!
,----[ Quote ]
| S2 Games may not be as well known as id Software or Epic Games, but what
| distinguishes them from most of the other game companies is that they
| actually support Linux. With S2 Games' Savage 2, for example they provide a
| Linux-native game client. S2 Games is hard at work on another title, Heroes
| of Newerth, and that too will be supported on Linux. In fact, it's already
| running on Linux and Linux gamers will likely find a native client binary
| around the time of the game's release on Windows (read: it won't be released
| months or years later, like what we frequently find with Linux ported
| titles). Sound pretty great, but too impatient to wait for the game's
| release? Well, come play it with us right now! And for free!

Phoronix Thread Leads To New Linux Game Ports
,----[ Quote ]
| Svartalf, a member of the Phoronix Forums and developer for Linux Game
| Publishing, recently asked our readers on the forums to provide a wish-list
| of games they wished to see ported to Linux. There ended up being an
| outpouring of interested Linux gamers with more than 1,120 replies! Svartalf
| shared that "[the] effort that actually did much more than I'd hoped for"
| and "as it stands, we've got one on contract (stalled though...) and one
| complete game as a result of this thread."

Unreal Tournament 3 Linux Status
,----[ Quote ]
| For those of you who are not subscribed to the mailing list, here’s the email
| verbaitim from Ryan Gordon, the man behind the curtain who is responsible for
| the Linux port of UT3 Linux server and client binary distribution… which
| still hasn’t happened yet - but they will be available “as soon as possible.”
|
| The most interesting piece (in my opinion) is that he believes that it can be
| determined what the cause for delays in the final release of the Linux server
| by comparing the binaries. I better brush up on my assembly.
