861 Civilization: Call To Power games -1 Civilization: Call T This looks very nice but I much prefer Freeciv 1999-06-20 07:58:13 0
862 URBAN games 1773 URBAN Great game! Only things I didn't like was that it has to be run in 8bpp mode (GGI limitation?), and that the player's animation seems rather rigid 1999-06-20 15:50:13 0
863 XRoads games 1786 XRoads 1999-06-21 07:32:36 0
864 xtraceroute games -1 xtraceroute KICKA$$!!!!!! Couldnt stop trying out sites. This proggie rules. Wish it had server type detection also (ie. Linux, NT, etc) that would be kewl! 1999-06-21 07:41:06 0
865 GRacer games -1 GRacer To make the game run, I had to manually set the hostname of my machine, and a port number on both the server (grserver) and the client (gracer). I found the gtkglarea widget by searching at www.altavista.com. The configure script does not check for this. 1999-06-21 08:20:33 0
866 XQF games 1679 XQF This is the crap... I just timed it... It refreshes and sorts 1473 quake2 servers in under 10secs, and Gamespy does the same in 1:25... Takes about 5 seconds just for gamespy to sort the list... In XQF it's almost immediate. (btw, I am on cable, w/ a k6-2 350, so YMMV) 1999-06-21 11:56:54 0
867 Freeciv games 1789 Freeciv As usual with Open Source software, graphics are awfull ! There are plenty of telented OS programmer but no correct OS graphist out there ? I won't play it more than I did until some improvement are done in that area... Will I have to learn how to draw just to play the game ? Please ! For the sake of humanity, don't let me draw ! ;-) 1999-06-21 12:21:43 0
868 XRoads games 1718 XRoads Really funny to play, altough the keyboard control is a bit sloppy. But that makes the game just more stressing ... 1999-06-21 14:37:33 0
869 Freeciv games 1718 Freeciv What can you say about this game? A brilliant port of the best computergame ever made. And to be honest, slaughtering some other human players is far more fun then just the computer-controlled. Even the quality of the graphucs are increasing. 1999-06-21 14:42:12 0
870 XRacer games 1735 XRacer Wow. I've played 0.5, 0.7 and 0.11 (they all came out on the same day -- talk about rapid development) and I think it looks very promising. I even browsed thru the source code and it looks very nicely done. Get it! And the game is very playable btw. :) 1999-06-21 17:18:08 0
