Now I've nothing against everyone wanting the next big thing on Linux, but the beauty of it in my eyes is that it doesn't need some huge great ultra-powerful comp to run it. It's very happy on my Pentium 60 at home. FPS's bore teh s*** out of me and while Diablo would be nice, its the been there, seen it and done it factor that gets me. Why not then revive games that haven't seen the light of day for a while.
So here's my suggestions for ports of some classic coin-ops.
Outrun - no-one ever did this properly Twin Cobra - no-one ever did this (SWIV doesnt count) Powerslide - awesome graphics, awful ports Shinobi - 2d platform king
