Arrow The 25 Best Games of Linux for 2008

Hey, I thought linking to this forum thread would be rather interesting, as this is a reference of the 25 best games of Linux for 2008:

http://www.talk-gaming.com/unix-linu...es-2008-a.html

I am very surprised at the list. A lot of the games look impressive and look like typical Windows games. I guess this is why I love open source: compatibility.

Tremulus looks like a neat game.

Should add World of Warcraft to that list. From what I have read here, you can use it with WINE.

But it's not an actual Linux game, so it can't be added there.

BTW Sabayon comes with some of these games already installed in it.

Thanks for posting the link. The one that jumped out at me was "Frets On Fire."
It looks like it has similarities to the game that uses the guitar-style interface. I can't believe I'm drawing a blank on the name of that one.
