[Novalug] Fav game?

[Mike Shade]

Of course, Nexuiz is also open source, so I like to give back by running the
servers and helping the community.  No doubt about the polish, but try
2.4once it comes out.  They've given a lot of attention to textures
and menus,
making it look quite a bit more polished than 2.3 and below.
