I am not really a person to play games on pc but since i don't have my PS2 with me at UNI. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas where i can get decent games for linux, to play with standalone or online. Any ideas of where to get them from please let me know.
From that site, you can do a search to see what games they currently support, and then from there you can make your descision(s) as to which games to get. Personally, I'm thinking of getting Daoc since it seems that Daoc Gold Edition (I think) is now supported.
Ive been playing Diablo2 with winex. It runs great. i am also playing Jedi 2, which runs great under winex. I would highly recommend Winex. It has played every game I've tried. Ones like Counter Strike, starcraft, des eux, max payne 1and 2, Age of emporires 2, Grand theft auto, and a few others i can't recall.
Tactical ops. FPS- CS-style.
A bit old but still going strong + you can get it for like no money at all.
No need for winex either, download linux-installer here: http://icculus.org/~ravage/tacticalops/
I bought Heroes of Might and Magic III and some other games from a site I've forgotten for $9.99 each (2 years ago). You should be able to find some other game sites selling linux games if you look for it. But they're not the latest and not the best games. For that you need wine, which is not always that simple...

America's Army looks pretty cool (even if you are not from the U.S.!). It is sponsored by the U.S. Army, I think kind of as a recruiting tool, and is available for free for online play!
The best games for linux are those based on the quake 3 engine. So i definatly recomend wolfenstein: enemy territory as its free to download, uses the q3 engine, and keeps with the linux philosophy.

Amen to that! Nothin more relaxing than going home after a rough school day and mowing down some Nazis. Then taking a panzerfaust and blowing the shit out of 25 guys as they come out of the spawn.
