Urban Terror Colombia
And to this day, nothing better than gunpowder and fireworks to keep up morale. This time we recommend the old and known Urban Terror, which as a recent recalls:
"Urban Terror, usually abbreviated as URT (to differentiate it from Unreal Tournament) is a total conversion mod for Quake 3 Arena developed by ID Software, to the point of having become a game apart.

OpenArena game for Ubuntu

One of the main reasons why young people complain of Ubuntu is the lack of videogames. But let me not be okay with that. First, as already demonstrated in the previous year, you can install the games for Windows with the help of Wine. Secondly there are video games created exclusively for Linux distributions. One of the most played OpenArena is a fps based on the graphics engine dell'arcinoto Quake 3 Arena (then a graphic not trendy but certainly pleasant and smooth) and that this allows the game online and fun to highest level! I note that in order to turn OpenArena you need support 3D acceleration.
Playbuntu is Playdeb
The new draft repository of games for Ubuntu announced as Playbuntu posted a message on his blog saying that change name to "Playdeb". The reason is that Canonical decided to implement its policy of trademark and denying permission and support for using the name "Playbuntu." Apparently this would be to avoid the confusion that users would have to believe that Playbuntu is another version of Ubuntu.
The good news is that an initial Beta Playdeb repository will be available from next September 1.
Download Free Universal Linux Launcher 0.7 for NCSoft Games

Universal Linux Launcher 0.7 (ULL) can currently handle: Auto Assault, Dungeon Runners (incl PTS), Tabula Rasa, Lineage, Lineage 2 (incl Test Server), City of Heroes (incl EU & Test), Guild Wars and Exteel. Not all these games work under wine but support exists for when they do.
NCSoft are the makers of quite a few MMORPGs, while most of them feature standalone patching NCSoft has started to use a universal launcher to take care of patching.
The NCSoft launcher relies on .NET 2.0 which wine can't handle well just now so a temporary solution is needed until wine and .NET 2.0 work well together. ULL is that solution, each of the supported games can be uniquely configure (including separate WINEPREFIXs).
