[wplug] Linux games to show off at LAN party

[Bryon Gill]

Unreal Tournament 2004 is by far my favorite game for linux right now, and 
thanks to Ryan Gordon (a.k.a. "the linux games industry") it works natively and 
pretty much perfectly, and there's an installer included with the retail box- it 
even has a penguin on it!  Be sure to play onslaught mode if you're unfamiliar 
with the game.

Also worth mentioning is Neverwinter Nights, which has a native linux client 
written with SDL.

If you're willing to use Cedega you can show off warcraft 3 and world of 
warcraft as well, among others.
