There has been a lot of good things happening with OpenGL (and OpenCL) support in the free video drivers over the last several months. By the time Fedora 18 comes out it looks good for full or as full as we can legally provide OpenGL 3.0 support for the majority of the available video cards.
We just got sumwars. Red Eclipse will likely be in the repos in a week or two. 0 A.D. looks to be a very promising game. With some effort we could have it in Fedora by the time F18 comes out and the game will possibly be changing from Alpha to Beta around that time.
