Looks like Electronic Arts opened Command & Conquer! Or not? I'm not sure yet :)

Yep. Looks like they did. It's all in GPLv3 too.

I spent all the mana on building TF2, recently announced by Valve. Can someone let me know if it really works on Linux.

Seems that game assets yet wanted there:

To use the compiled binaries, you must own the game.

Yeah, the CnC games were only written for Windows looks like. But now somebody can more easily port the games for Linux, since it's open source!

@ps I seen that compilation thing. I don't know if that's for the assets, or they just don't want to link to precompiled binaries, but if you compile the source yourself then there should be no problem. I haven't checked to see if assets are included under the license.

Edit: I don't see assets in the repo at first glance, but I might be looking in the wrong places.

Now the *real* win will be when we have it for Haiku OS ;)

Haiku development going faster than RedoxOS, now I'm thinking about try it again :)
