Some people are like slinkies... not really good for anything, but you still can't help smiling when you shove them down the stairs.

Unfortunately most of those have no OS X binaries or are not that easy to compile under OS X :(

Right now my favorite free/open source game for playing is Trigger Rally because it's quick and runs on my EeePc 1000H Netbook, which I carry around all the time.

You got some strange choices there and other high profile titles are missing. Syntensity and Thunder&Lightning for example are not under active development for quite a long time now. Oh and War§ow isn't really "Free".

My list would be: Xonotix, Tremulous, Megaglest and OAD

SuperTuxKart (of course), and 0 A.D. is the best in my opinion. If I were to pick a third option (which I didn't) I'd choose SuperTux.

Covers arcade driving, real-time strategy and platformers. Picking similar games would be kinda daft.
Hey pal, I took an oath for justice! "In happy days or tightest tights..." or something like that.

One of my favorite is UFO : Alien Invasion.
These times I enjoy playing Legend Of Edgar and Zelda Solarus DX (and Me And My Shadow).
With friends, I play SuperTuxKart with joysticks or Tremulous with PCs.

The Battle for Wesnoth.
Why didn't you include some really major free games (Teeworlds, Warzone2100, Wesnoth) in the poll, but very small ones like Me and My Shadow?

I voted red eclipse, supertuxkart, and megaglest.
The only other game i have played is supertux, personally i'm not too keen on the mario style games (more of a sonic fan!) although i find myself playing it from time to time.

Not sure about the others, but would be interested to find out when i have to time to download them.

Favourites that aren't in the poll; Sauerbraten, Alien Arena, Open Red Alert, Pingus.
