Recently, I've been into the now abandonware Unreal Tournament series (Specifically 99 and 04), and I'm loving them.

I also play titles such as Xonotic, Q3A, OpenArena and even Sauerbraten sometimes. That's rare nowadays for me, though.

Quake 3 and UT99. Haven't really played any in a while, though.

I wish I could have played Tribes before it died. I've seen they made a new one but apparently it's already dead as there doesn't seem to have been any communication about it.

Classics. I've added the patches to the games myself, and they work just as well.

UT99 is abandonware now, since Epic decided they didn't want to work on Unreal anymore. It's a shame, really.

Red Eclipse and Q3A.

Red Eclipse is a classic Free Software AFPS, forked from Sauerbraten and Tessaract, combined into its own engine for those not in the know.
