Irritant_new |

Do you like old school deathmatch with modern features but none of the frills that have ruined the raw purity of the genre? How about rich, colorful, arcadelike atmospheres? How about...retro Sci Fi? Then you're going to love what Alien Arena has in store for you! This game combines some of the very best aspects of classic deathmatch, and wraps them up with a retro alien theme, while adding tons of original ideas to make the game quite unique. Alien Arena is a furious frag fest with arenas ranging from the small, to the massive. With game modes such as Capture The Flag and Tactical, there are terrific team-based experiences to be had as well as 1v1 duels, free-for-all, and dozens of mutators to alter the game play to your liking. The community is friendly, as well as prolific. Dozens of maps, models, and various accessories have been created by community members to add on to the game experience.

Yeah, I'm in. Gotta try it with my Nvidia 3D and see how that works on the old engine :)

I searched the alien arena forums about the Linux openal audio drivers and found that I will need to update my Fedora 8 to play.
Does anyone know if there is an openal, openal-soft that will run in Fedora 8? the only ones I found were for Fedora 9, 10 & 11.
Otherwise, it runs great in Windows XP
