Cold War is a first-person stealth/shooter game currently under development for Linux and other platforms. <i>(thanks, Dave!)</i> <li>Ryan "Icculus" Gordon was interviewed on the internet radio show <a href="http://www.macradio.com/monday/">The Gamesome Mac</a> about porting Unreal Tournament 2003 to the Mac. I haven't listened to the interview, but since Mr. Gordon holds the world's record for most first-person shooters ported to the Linux platform, I figure this may be of interest to Linux gamers. </ul> | Some miscellaneous stuff | default | |
