What about Ultima V: Lazarus (http://www.u5lazarus.com/)?! It is a fabulous remake of Origin’s original Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny using the Dungeon Siege engine.

On a similar note, the Ultima 6 Project (http://www.u6project.com/) has reached beta 3, and it looks like version 1.0 will be released very soon. I’ve been playing the beta, and it is fantastic!!

Can’t really comment on the relative merits as I haven’t played them all (had performance issues w/ Nexiuz), but I like AssaultCube a lot. One of its advantages is a pretty active community; I played Sauerbraten (cube 2) for a while, which is also really neat, but it seems that the community has fallen off a lot (public, at least).

and be welcome taking a regular look at pyweek.org (twice a year) – mostly games from there really sucks, but sometimes some brilliant games appears there (around 10%) – anyway, i really wished this competition has submissions as brilliant as HSPTV ones (onionsoftware youtube account), but it depends on the popularity pyweek.org may have in the meanwhile

Not really a game, but I've had hours and hours of fun with Celestia. Fire it up, hold down the "]" key until the Magnitude is above 10.00, and hold down the "End" key until you zoom out of the known galaxy, "Powers of Ten" -style. Then head over to the add-on motherlode, where you can download high-res imagery for almost any planet as well as lots of extra satellites and a variety of fictitious spacecraft models from your favorite sci-fi. It's probably the best, nerdiest eye-candy I've seen running on Linux.
