Q3Base is a fork of Quake III Arena. Its advantage is that
it has a lot of bugfixes, including support for FreeBSD out
of the box. It also uses GNU Autoconf/Automake and works
with BSD Make, thus removing the dependency on Perl and GNU
Make.
It's also more compact than Quake III Arena - 1.4 MB .tar.bz2
vs 5.5 MB .zip.

Formido is one of those games, where you are loaded with some guns

big, ugly, - not green though - alien insects. The idea is to kill

you, but struggle as long as you can. There are some power-ups to
aid you in your honorable quest. Keep in mind, that those critters
are rather tough and generally do nasty things when in close range
of any player-characters.

id Software has released Linux binaries for Quake 4! Hooray!
They seem to work on FreeBSD as well (worked on my machine,
about 5 FPS ;-)).
There isn't a port for it at the moment, so I've made one.
I don't feel like maintaining it, because I can't really
test it on my machine.
The port isn't complete; There isn't a switch to install
dedicated only (wouldn't be hard though) and I guess we
shouldn't be able to build packages from it.
Have fun! :-)
