it would be cool if someone would take on the daunting challenge of porting warzone 2100 to PSP.

Where is the source code, so we can access it?

Hell, I'd settle for a link to something that gives a description of the game.

One of the fan projects, to make the game cross compatible (win/Linux)

Well, I gotta say, while it looks like it's something within reach of the PSP's hardware capabilities (The PSP could probably dish out enough GPU to render those graphics at those resolutions), I'm wondering about the controls. An RTS is only fun if you can control it, and the death knell of many console-based RTS's has been their controls. So far, the only two consoles that seem to bridge the gap from the computer world are the Wii (Wiimote's point-n-click ability, though it's questionable how well this would go over) and the NDS (touch screen, hands down, would work awesome).

Not to say it's impossible to make this work, but it's going to have some major stumbling blocks (just look at Gunnar Hero).

Looks like a perfect project to port for someone who has worked with SDL + PSPGL. I unfortunately never got PSPGL to cooperate with SDL, so I'm not the one. Definately a project looking for someone to port. It might even port with few changes.
