Games for linux? What's next? Games for Macs?
Check out Ambrosia Software. They've made a lot of great Mac games (Escape Velocity Series), and they are starting to port them to Linux (Maelstrom).
I set up a mac emulator on my Windows box just so I could play some of their games.

I agree. I was going to get an old mac to play escape velocity, then they released it for PC.

They think they're being controversial or something, but they're actually just being really stupid and immature. This game reeks of 13-year-old humor. This game has no artistic, comical, or technical value whatsoever. I like to support Linux games on general principle, but I just can't do that for this game.
