OpenTTD (OpenTransportTycoonDeluxe)

OpenTTD is an open source game engine for the Chris Sawyer game Transport Tycoon Deluxe written in C using a disassembly of the original game binaries.

OpenTTD duplicates the original game's features but also has numerous additions, including canals, revised rail station construction, and additional airports. Perhaps the most significant feature compared to the original game is its multiplayer capability. It offers LAN and Internet play via public, world-wide servers for up to eleven players. OpenTTD also includes numerous usability improvements not present in Transport Tycoon Deluxe.

It incorporates many features from TTDPatch, and like TTDPatch is available under the GNU GPL. Both OpenTTD and TTDPatch are not totally standalone games — while OpenTTD does not need the Transport Tycoon Deluxe executables, it does need the game graphics files. However, there is currently an effort to devise a new graphics standard (and new graphics) to eliminate this need.[1]

The game's legality has been questioned by some, since the initial versions were created by disassembling the binary from the official release.

.

but it probably wouldn't ever make it as an official app here because it needs some files from the original paid version of TransportTycoon. He said he has the files, but i don't know if someone's going to make this just for one person.

You can install OpenTTD on external media ...

I did a quick look at the readme for OpenTDD (http://www.openttd.org/readme.txt), and found that there is a section (4.3) Portable Installations (External Media)) that explains how to install OpenTDD on external media. It won't be in PAF format, but you will be able to run it in a portable fashion.
