The bsd games - particularly rogue and wumpus and adventure.
When I was little, Dad had a terminal and a 300 BAUD accoustic coupler,
and would let us play them on the Berkeley Game Computer (he worked
there, still does). This was early 80's. Those games were fun.
I had them working on LinuxPPC back in LinuxPPC 1999, I haven't tried
to build them in Fedora yet though.

Anyone know if the game "Microsoft Windows" could be included
into the next Fedora?
I don't think that can be possible. I know that is a game that
require a great machine, it uses a lot of resources and it
hangs a lot, and is the best way to see a virus in action,
but IS VERY FUNNY!
Ah... anything else, if you play with Windows, you can
learn a lot! A lot of ways to lose info, to get angry instantly
or in a long process, and obviously the 1049 ways of
rebooting a computer to install a Notepad.
Thank you for the answers...

I don't play many games. My wife does and likes the games similar to
tile matching and puzzles. Making improvements to these games, like
adding sounds and a wider range of tilesets (And full-screen modes)
would probably add to pursuade more common users to the linux platform.
Educational games for children with sound, animated cute characters and
educative challenges might help with entertaining and building younger
user into future linux users.
In general, children seem to have no problem navigating through the GUI
menus. finding entertainment and educational tools for their usage is a
bit harder.
Myself, asteroids like games, solotaire as it stands is about all that I
really have tried. A pinball type game might find some minor interest
for me on rare occasions.

asteroids and Doom are trademark protected, so you'll have to be more
creative than saying "trademarked protected name of game."
For example... Cube exists without trademark issues... and is a FPS
and similar to Doom in genre. But open source binaries aren't as
useful as the official binaries, because the official binaries embedd
some key signature checking to make sure you are using official
binaries to prevent some very blatant cheating from locally hacked
clients on the official game servers that are being run for
multiplayer. I don't know about the technical state of the Cube
codebase, and I'm not sure if there is a way for Fedora to distribute
binaries which include a variation of the internal signature checking
to prevent people from using locally hacked versions of the open
source codebase to cheat on multiple games. This is certaintly
something that would have to appear in Extras first before it could be
considered for Core inclusion really.

I'd like a pony... but its not really useful to mention that in this forum.
Can we please keep this discussion constrainted to things actionable
inside the Fedora Project, and not let this slip away into
pie-in-the-sky hopes and dreams that are not directly resolvable by
this community. The topic of this thread borders just outside the
bounds of useful actionable discussion, widening the subject to talk
about what the game industry as a whole should be doing with their
development manhours moves this discussion even further away from any
actionable recommendations fedora developers and contributors can use.

Monopoly is one of the best game I like to be included in Fedora Core.
GtkAtlantic is a mature open source project that is a client for
monopd server, those are projects to play Monopoly game.
Including Monopoly in a Linux distro is surprising, since Linux is a
anti-Monopolistic OS. :p But if they do, there goes recursivitiy.

Games like quake and doom are problematic for base distributions. The degree

There is at least one implementation in FC3. It's called Gnect and is in
the gnome-games package. I could have sworn there was at least one other
in there somewhere, but I don't see it right now.

Cheers,
Gnect isn't Go. It's "Connect 4" - akin perhaps to "Go
Moku".
Go is played on a 19 by 19 board and has the aims of surrounding
territory and capturing your opponent's stones.
No Go playing program has got any where near strong amateur level.

Don't think so (yum search doesn't find it in stable/testing/unstable)
because it needs plib as well.
Querying bugzilla, the following ticket is where it was pulled:
https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1037
But plib16 (1.6.0) and plib 1.8.4 are back in Fedora Extras CVS,
and torcs 1.2.1, which hasn't been updated since rh9, is included.

So theoretically I could submit my flightgear rpms, too, couldn't I? I
also have torcs RPMs for version 1.2.2 lying around, so...

Well, last status update was this:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2004-November/msg01170.html
There's still hope that Father Christmas will come with much more
encouraging news. ;)

Dunno whether the included package is unmaintained or will be
unmaintained or whether the last maintainer would be happy about
transferring package ownership. There are many options.

Heh, I didn't want to stir up the Fedora Extras brew, I was just
inquiring about the status of plib ;-). Since freeglut seems to be
something of a fully fledged alternative to the non-free glut now (with
compatibly named header files and stuff), having plib back in
fedora.us/extras shouldn't be a problem, should it?

I would be most happy to give the package away, mind I'm not lacking
packages to maintain ;-).

Why not include scorch-like games like "Atomic Tank",
