Summary ::

An exploration of Free and Open Source (FOSS) Video Games

Abstract

What do you think of when you hear the words "open source"? Probably not video games -- but perhaps you should! Quality Open Source games exist in nearly every genre of gaming from Action and Adventure to Education and Simulation.

In this presentation we will journey through an industry overview, outline the top FOSS games in most genres, examine the science/value of Video Games, and highlight Open Source game servers. You will see how Free and Open Source (FOSS) games/options offer something fun for everyone: the casual gamer, educator, non-technical user, IT/business person or and even super l33t video gamer.

Join Joseph Guarino of Evolutionary IT (www.evolutionaryit.com) in a lighthearted exploration of the wonderfully fun world of Free and Open Source (FOSS) Video Games.

Warning: This presentation is ESRB rated HA! for graphic and absurd humor, fun, and hilarity. Seriously though, it's OK to still have fun!
