OK, I'd like SimCity 3000 Unlimited,... Once again, ported!

How about FreeSpace 1 & 2,... Ported again (betas, but ported)!

Homeworld?,... Ported (a buggy alpha, but still ported)!!!

Micro$haft Combat Flight Simulator 2?!?!?!... No that one's Definitely not ported!!!

Good question.

Also, I'd like to see BF1942 with tall the expacks and DC mod.

Plus, it would be extra nice to see the All Seeing Eye for Linux too.

With Quake 3 Arena, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Unreal Tournament 2003, and Neverwinter Nights, you get the Win versions (or get from Tux Games because then it will count as a Linux sale), and either use the on-disk Linux install (for UT2K3) or download the installer.

For SimCity3000, Descent3, Alpha Centuri (impossible to find now), Postal Plus, Heavy Metal FAKK2, and a bunch others, you need the original Loki release as Win versions won't do it.

But go here for a list of games:

Obviously Half-life2, and since Max Payne2 is based on its engine then i guess port that too. O and my other ones i want ported are counter-strike,(and hurry damnit by the time someone ports this game, itll be givin free over the internet and abused like poor DOOM) Warcraf, WorldOFWarcraft, and Battlefield + along with its mod DesertCombat.

I can't believe no one mentioned Heroes of Might and Magic :'(
I really love these series. It was one of the first strategy games I played (King's Bounty was the first one). And I played all of them, right now playing HOMM IV. Great game, but I think it was MUCH more popular in Russia then it is in North America.

well, i want a good Genesys / Mega Drive emulator wich runs ok in my p2 300 mhz. I tried the linux version of Gens but, while windows version runs fluently, this one doesn't. I also tried generator.
I also want to know how to use my Maxfire g8 gamepad under linux (and the emulator of course).
