Best 25 Linux Games for 2008
If you’re interested in games for a Linux platform, then you know that game probably is open source, free from cost in most cases, and free to modify. The latter attribute is why Linux games are so popular…a developer can take a great game and make it even better, share it with the world, and become a hero. So, why waste your time and money on proprietary games when so many great Linux games are available?
We’ve listed the top 25 Linux games for 2008 below. While we believe that Spring is definitely tops on the 2008 list, we had a difficult time aligning the other games by numerical order. Therefore, take those numbers with a grain of salt, because each game is so different and it’s the best in its league. Take FreeCiv, for instance (#3) - some players will love this game, yet others will like the simplicity of Battle for Wesnoth even better (#6). Or, some people may not like civilization games at all, as they may be addicted (and will continue to be addicted) to the older game, Tux Racer (#18).
