Some games run natively on FreeBSD with no emulation. For example
Urban Terror is a first person shooter that fits this category, and
it's very popular. /usr/ports/games/iourbanterror and it requires
hardware 3D acceleration (nVidia drivers would work well).

Not in the ports tree and not that I know of. I'm sure it's not
