Morning Friends,
Perhaps you are looking forward for a relaxed weekend, warming up to the weekend mood I pose you are rather odd question.
'What does GNU/Linux Gamers Like'?
Most of the time I get answers like 'I don't have time for game's or 'Hey, you dork people have work to do unlike you'.
But really let look into the mind of a GNU/Linux. Do let me what you like.
Here are some of I like to play now as am still using K6-2 455MHz I don't have much fuel of hot games ;o).
1) All the games on Emacs, esp those I don't need to play like zone or Hanoi(Hanoi-UNIX. ;o))
2) Most lasted and old variants of nethack including the latest Falcon-eye.
3) Most of the games of old bsd-games package and those old DO$ ID games.
What do you like.
