    Unhappy A free, 1 player fps?

    Hi there everyone, I'm trying to permanently get myself set up with Ubuntu. To do this, i need my games- it's a necessity. I would LOVE some links to free FPS games that are single player, with good AI programming. I don't care about the value of the graphics, but better is... well, better.
    Any links that fit this would be great! thanks!

    Open Arena has always been a long time favorite of mine.

    Open Arena does have single player. Although its a lot like Q3 Arena where you are playing against bots.

    ET:QW does have single player as well.

    i know but i think the OP searched something single player with a story. though he didn't elaborate on that. these MP deathmatches do get kind of old after a while even with bots. i don't really know any new, good free single player 1st person shooter games with story. Maybe penumbra demo?! havent' tried it yet though.

    btw i just remembered if you don't mind the graphics you could run old dos game in DosBOX. plenty of them out there are in the grey area between free (abandoned) and for sale.

    also what about Cube? i think they had some story based level wandering... or was it just walking arround shooting.

    There's not a great deal of free TRUE single player fps and the ones that do exist are graphically dated (Doom esk)
    Freedoom *recommended*
    Excalibur Morganas Revenge
    Marathons Aleph one series

    I would like to recommend ProjectX to you. It's a Source Port of the (former commercial) Game Forsaken which is a 360 Degree Movement FPS (like Descent). You can watch some Gameplay and Download the Game on the Homepage of the Game.

    These, have been great, most of them at least. And I'm sorry, i should have specified, the one player needs to be more than just a bot arena.
    I've played the demo for ET:QW before on Windows, and it is by far the BEST single player ever. I have the demo disk here, but can't get it to work with Ubuntu.
    And Freedoom would work great, i've used it before, I just can't leave the first room- it gliches and the door won't open.
    Thanks, I'll look through the posts for games I've missed, and go ahead and add any games that need to be added.
