My small fast review:
Cons:
Download: Download link is very slow (everyone is download it by now)
Feeling: Not finished yet... that "I want more!" feeling is constant, also is "OMG! This is so cool!! When this will be ready? Can´t wait to play it for real!!" xD
Pros:
Graphics: 9/10 (Very detailed and impresive also are the animations)
Audio: 8/10 (Very decent)
Sounds: 8/10 (Very decent)
Playability: 9/10 (Just simple and intuitive as it could be)
Features: Map creator included (!!!), great players chat. (And many other cool stuff)
NOTE: That score is "virtual" as if it was a complete commercial game review. For an Open source game everything fits in a 10/10... What can we ask more for these developers, working for free, to us all? In the genre will be the #1, no doubt! In Multiplayer mode, I wouldnt be surprised if this game beats the awesome classic "Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory" (this one is licensed as "free", not "open source"), in fans numbers, clans, websites, custom mods, custom maps, custom scripts, etc, etc ... in a really "short" time... Let´s see...
TIP: Have free time?... How about starting developing "fan" and "clan" websites for it?........ Move!... Post it here. I will join!

Thanks for the list. Nexuiz is my favourite out of them all.
well,
I am by no means a 'gamer', and havent played video games of any kind for about 10 years..
HOwever,
Just last night I was looking in the software center and saw something listed called "Vendetta Online"..
Turned out it was a space based game (woohoo!) lol, and it's an "mmorpg" apparently, but I installed it to check it out, (cuz who doesnt wanna fly around the universe?) lol, and the graphics looked awesome,
and next thing i knew, I had been playing the thing for like 3 hours!
Very cool game!
Vendetta online, check it out.
very helpful. granted they could be better but im not one to complain.
Hello all. Just to say that you can now play 0 A.D., in single player mode, and play against humans and bots! (4 players in total)
Even the game is not finished yet... It´s awesome! (About ~150MB file size). Its a serious candidate to be the best open source game... ever!...
Have fun!
Current version is: 0 A.D. Alpha 4 Daedalus
