From what I've read, porting the Ultimas to Linux would be a great chance to fix some of the interface issues they have. I haven't played them, I heard from a guy that made the game that he actually taped his finger to the mouse because there was so much walking involved in the game. Would be a good chance to fix those little things that detract from the title.
I would like to see something from the Command and Conquer series, preferably a realistic(ish) one, like Red Alert 2 or Generals or something, I wouldn't mind paying the Windows price for them. Probably the only reason I'm gonna miss Windows actually.
NWN2 to GNU/Linux OSX and BSD. I really believe that Atari have shot themselves in the foot by refusing to do this, seeing as most of the repeat buyers, and later buyers of NWN were users of Linux and OSX. They may make a few quick bucks of NWN2, but it will never have the 'long tail' that NWN had.
PS: nomb, you are thinking of the expansions for NWN NOT NWN2

I'm in agreement with johngreenwood. I really like Red Alert 2 and it would be great if i could play it on my linux box. But for know i have to play it on windows . I would also love to have UT2004 or the new Unreal tournament 2007 ported(it won't happen probably, but it would be sweet!!).

UT 2004 ALREADY works in Linux. The installer is on the same cds as the Windows installer.

wish granted. ut2004,2003 and UT:GOTY have all native linux versions which run very well. as for 2007 i have not a clue but i'd assume atari will continue to support linux community..
happy fragging
Distribution: ubuntu netbook 10.04, jolicloud 1.1, and a custom one-off distro

I personally think some of the later Star Trek based games... such as Starfleet Command 2, Orion Pirates, and Starfleet Command 3... Bridge Commander would keep me busy, stuff like that...*nods* yup... I would be a happy camper then.
