Osmos for Linux...prepare to be assimilated
,----[ Quote ]
| So when Dave Burke from Hemisphere games
| emailed me to let me know that his game
| "Osmos" had been ported to Linux, it got my
| attention. As requested, he sent me a link
| to download it and give it a try. And as
| most always with Indie guys, it comes with
| no form of DRM.

After Scid row, a new chess app is born
,----[ Quote ]
| In the long history of computer-based chess
| games, one of the earliest open source
| applications was Shaneâs Chess Information
| Database, better known as Scid. Last year
| Steven Atkinson, a Unix graduate and hobby
| programmer from Brisbane, Australia, used
| the Scid code to create a usability and
| bug-fix fork called Scid Vs. PC. With it
| you can play chess online or against
| numerous chess engines, browse tournaments
| downloaded in PGN format, and create chess
| databases.

| A proverb that often springs to mind during
| the day is that all work and no play makes
| Jack a dull boy. Breaking up the monotony
| of the daily grind (also known as work)
| cannot be underestimated. Computer games
| are a great form of entertainment, less
| passive that watching the TV, just as
| challenging as completing the Times
| crossword, but much more fun.

TripleA
,----[ Quote ]
| TripleA is a free turn-based strategy board
| game and board game, which includes single
| player, local (hot-seat, an underrated play
| option IMO) and networked multiplayer.
|
| Recreate World War 2 with the Axis
| pushing through to Moscow and Japan
| devouring the Pacific, or recreate
| Napoleonâs march across Europe, or Rome
| defeating the Carthaginian Empire, or
| even Sauron conquering Middle Earth, or
| Zombies taking over America! If you
| have ever played a game where you push
| little plastic or virtual pieces
| around, roll dice, conquer the lands of
| your enemy, and produce new pieces to
| conquer with, Then you will be able to
| jump right into TripleA!

Some WINE with your Starcraft 2?
,----[ Quote ]
| I have been happily playing Starcraft 2
| under Ubuntu 10.04 for the last three days
| now. All I have to say is that it is a true
| testament to how much progress the WINE
| project has made in recent years when it
| can be counted upon to run a new title that
| hasn't even been fully released yet!
| Performance under WINE is not perfect, but
| on lower settings it is more than playable
| (which is what really counts). There seems
| to be a processor bottle neck on higher
| detail settings (also present in L4D2 under
| WINE actually) that hinders performance.

ow-to Become a Linux Gamer
,----[ Quote ]
| The distro includes 34 of the most popular,
| fun, free and open source games that run
| natively in Linux. Most, if not all, of them
| can be found and installed from your regular
| distro's repositories once you are back in
| the friendly confines of your distro of
| choice. You can find a complete list of
| games and download links at live.linux-
| gamers.net. Every single game played great
| -- a few even had cool soundtracks -- and
| while I was very familiar with many of the
| games, there were some I had never heard of.
