ET was obviously planned as an expansion pack for Return to Castle
Wolfenstein, but for some reason Id Software changed their minds and
decided to make it a stand alone game and give it away for free. You
won't have to spend a single leu (apart from the cost for downloading).

There is a Linux version as well as a Windows one. On this page you'll
find links to several Linux download sites:

The file you download contains a client as well as a game server, so if
you want to, you'll be able to host your own games with up to 50
participants.

The original game contains six maps, but custom maps have begun to pop
up as well. You can find many of them here: http://www.pcgamemods.com/4/

If you are behind a firewall you'll have to open udp ports 27950, 27951,
27952, 27960, and 27965.


Good luck, and see you in 1944
