Not all these games have the latest 3D graphics but what they lack in state of the art visuals they more than make up for in depth of gameplay and replayability. If you’re looking for something a bit different to play you definitely want to check out these: Read more at LinuxGames [...] [...] We’ve all heard of open source games like Tuxracer and Wesnoth, and of commercial games like Quake and Unreal Tournament but there are a number of lesser known Linux games that deserve some more attention.

Before having found spring, the piece of Windows Software I missed most on linux was C&C Generals ZH. These times are over, now. TA Spring is a perfect replacement, it's nice-looking, it has a lively community, there are plenty of mods & maps out there, internet play works great (numerous servers, works great with up to 16 players), it's non-trivial and it's great fun. Congratulations to the TA Spring community for this incredibly solid platform. Spring will provide an excellent base for a free RTS community now and in the future. Spring should be included in (the gaming repos of) all major linux distros. Cheers, Chris I just came accross TA Spring, recently and have been playing for a while now.
