I want Civilization series most
I believe there is no technical obstacle
especially because both civ3 and civ4 have mac os/x editions

This is really old school, but I'd kinda like to see the Princess Maker games ported to Linux.

Total annihilation FTW!

That is my favoritest game ever :{P

~JMickle (Go first post!)

BTW, have any of these games been ported yet? If so, could someone make a list or something?

Direct X? Why?
OpenGL IS better, ask any serious 3D develloper who have tried both.

The reason this keeps coming up is because DirectX is such a great marketing tool. Because it is so effectively marketed, most people don't realize that many games are also written with OpenGL support as well as DirectX.

Besides, DirectX does have a Linux port (Wine).

Command and Conquer I've bean a fan from the first one to the latest one I owend them all
and i still had to get my hands on the first decade as some disks from my collection were (well lets keep it clean)not working

I always liked Nerf Arena Blast.

Okay, at the risk of sounding like a perv, I haven't found one strip poker game that works with Linux.

I would like to see Starcraft II ported to linux, and of course the first edition too.

I was playing with wine but will be better if those games are ported to linux.

And FPS games too like ET that works great in my linux box.

Maplestory. I am still addicted. I would pay $30 for the port although the winblows version is free.
