I would love to see Gunbound on Linux. Its very similar to Worms and it is played online. A worms-like game would be a nice substitute but it wouldn't be the same because it wouldn't have the online community feeling that gunbound has.
I've tried this game on WINE and it doesn't work. According to some of the posts on their website forum many other people would like to see a Linux version of Gunbound also.

Why does anyone want Halo on Linux? Halo sucks for 2 reasons:
A) It just plain sucks, it gets boring after half an hour. I played it once for that long and have never wanted to play it again, even though first person shooters are the only games I play.
B) Its made (published) by MICROSOFT!!!!!!!!! This means you are shelling over money to the evil empire
Plus, I don't want anything so much as breathed on by M$ to touch my Linux installation with a 100 ft pole
Ok I must be losing it ... but I could have sworn I saw a Quake III patch for running on linux somewhere .... ID software put out a demo for linux .. so the porting is done somewhere out there already ....
