Played the zaxxon remake a couple of years ago. Zaxxon was one of my favorite back in the C64 days (among Dino Eggs etc.).

There are some remakes out there, which can run in linux natively;
Sword of Fargoal: http://fargoal.com/
Barbarian: http://tdbsoft.com/html/projects/barbarian.html
Beats of Rage: http://www.senileteam.com/games.html
Burgerspace: http://perso.b2b2c.ca/sarrazip/dev/burgerspace.html

Hey that looks cool!

i thought so too

i used to pump 20 cent pieces in to the zaxxon arcade machines when i was a kid like there was no tomorrow

whack it up to full screen, and throw headphones on and blast away...

great fun

love it
