Another superb collection of Linux games
Dear all, we have already had several articles on Linux gaming, including three chapters on First Person Shooters (FPS) covering eight games and two massive compilations containing tens of great titles. For today, I have prepared another interesting collection, with a bit of everything.
For best experience, I recommend you take a look at the other articles first, so you have a complete picture of what to expect from Linux games. You can find the links to older content in the Articles section below.
Now, without further ado, let us begin.
First Person Shooters
Once again, we have several interesting candidates. The FPS category is probably the most actively and most thoroughly developed genre of games for non-Windows platforms. This is mainly because of the open-source, freely redistributable Quake engine, created by id Software, an ever-Linux friendly company. In fact, most Linux FPS titles are based on the Quake engine. Nevertheless, they are varied enough to make playing each a unique experience.
