If you have a Quake2 CD then:
sudo apt-get install quake2

A really good one is Nexuiz:

More details on Nexuiz at:
http://www.nexuiz.com/

You will need 3d acceleration,
look for guides on the foum to get 3d acceleration running. There are diffrent guides for diffrent cards.

You really should check out Frozen Bubble.

It is highly addictive and fun!

After reading this thread I remember seeing a Soldat howto for linux over at Linuxgamers a while ago, I had another look and found the link :)

Hope this will sort you out :)

This thread makes me want to play Soldat again... ::sniff::

It's a couple years old now, and was 2D... maybe I should give it a shot with Wine.

yes, I know that
the same nostalgia-thing make me start this thread in firs place

by the way, I tryed the how-to but I have a little problem, it worked right but, when I play fullscreen I lost keybord focus, so I'm unable to use the keybord in the game, but playing in windowed mode makes the keybord work ok
besides that, and that the ingame text is gibberish, I can play soldat like in my old windozed-powered days
