Too Many Shoot 'Em Up Games

[ Thanks to Jacob Barkdull for this link. ]

"I like Quake and Duke Nukem, but I prefer more tactical games, like UrbanTerror, True Combat, Battlefield, Call of Duty, etc. However, most of these are proprietary games, which I don't have too much of a problem with, because I have no need to modify them for any practical use. But I can't help but be disappointed that developers aren't taking advantage of the advanced Free Software game engines, especially since most of the plays mentioned above don't have versions for GNU+Linux.

"All these great game engines are not used to the fullest potential, they are used mainly by the developers for the developer's own games, even though the game engines allow for a magnitude of different playing styles."
