Classic first-person shooters are without question my favourite video game genre, and it would be nice to be able to sit down and play more Indie games that can satisfy both my classic FPS craving while at the same time pushing the genre forward.

Lost Eden, a classic from 1995 has been released on GOG and it has Linux support right away thanks to DOSBox.
