I tried heretic in dosbox and it never loaded... Im sure it would have eventually but I didn't see the point, I wish tere was some optimisation done on dosbox, it's been sat in testing for ages and no1 seems to want to try and sort it out :(

I just want rise of the triad, I see it was ported to the n800 by qwert12 but no longer exists... :( anyone wanting to do this?

I like the ported strategy games, but how do you play 3d shooters, with no mouse and the N900 keyboard?

It was, it's not open. A project is underway, but stalled mid-development. Google "stargus"

@ndi, how would you play Homeworld though, surely you need the right mouse too?

As for FPS games, they can be a bit hard... I got quake2 on my n900 and it's just impossable to play, I can see that people may like to carry a keyboard and mouse but surely u might aswell just get a laptop or just play it at home? It's hardly something u wana show ur friends...

Some FPS games work well though, I have been paying zero tolerence on picodrive, and prdoom aswell, becasue the old fps games didn't require the player to look up or down these play rather well ;) rise of the Triad would probably be the close to the last FPS games where a mouse was not required.

Many games allow for a left click interface like Command and Conquer and Dune. Right click for the few could be hold stylus. Or drag or somesuck trick, if not widely used.
