Senza citare il ben noto Wine, che permette di girare più o meno bene i giochi nativi per windows, parliamo dei giochi nativi per Gnu/Linux. O ancora meglio di un gioco multipiattaforma. Warsow.
Un gioco che oramai ha sulle spalle un paio di anni che promette di dare una scossa al mondo del Progaming fissato su più blasonati ma poco profondi titoli.
E' uscito ieri sera in una nuova versione, ancora beta.
Riportiamo la news del sito originale www.warsow.net:
Finally! After 8 months of non-stop (http://www.warsow.net/forum/img/smilies/big_smile.png) coding, mapping, modelling, drawing, fighting, balancing and analyzing, the Warsow team has finally reached yet another milestone in its development cycle! I am very proud to announce the next major release of Warsow: version 0.4!

This is a selection out of some of the bigger changes from the changelog. There's much more to explore, so I suggest you go on and download your 0.4 flavour of choice (as usual, only a full release and no update available as there were too many media changes), right after these thanks:
Thanks to everyone who put effort into this release, thanks to all the coders, mappers, testers and team members for dedicating their free-time in making this release possible! Thanks community for all the feedback in forums and devblog throughout the development process. Thanks to everyone who supports Warsow!
