Cube :)

Anyone tried this game?
Its a free fps game, you can play both singleplayer and multiplayer.
It runs very smooth; loading new map takes less then 0.2 second for me and my FPS is mostly above 200. It works for both windows and linux.
The only draw back that it crashes when you want to list online game servers, but thats not really a problem just put the following lines in a file called 'servers.cfg' and put that in your cube folder(the folder where autoexec.cfg is located). Note that these servers are gathered by someone else so erm credits go to him/her :)

I've already heard of it... and it was mentioned when we were searching for a 3D engine. It's certainly a good game, although the engine has some limitations in the way the maps are stored (hence its name). I cannot tell much more about it until I try it, but I'm yet to download all that with my crappy modem :)

You should try it, its really fun :). Most code is client side done so I think you might be able to play online normally(Today I saw someone with a ~300 ping and he didn't had any problems with killing other people :) )
