Linux gaming

[old.Kerrang]

Hi there

This is a shameless plug for a new site we are creating for the Linux gaming community, and for those who thought that there were no games on Linux, come visit us.

We will have reviews up for open source games, commercial releases and games that run under WineX.
Features on emulation under Linux and just how good is WineX.
We hope to further the gaming cause on Linux and hopefully developers will notice and start producing more native Linux games themselves, rather than relying on WineX and Wine.
Hope you like our little corner (though hopefully it will mushroom into a full fledged community).

spamming cunt


Good luck Kerrang! I still play UT, HG2, Rune and T2 on linux thanks to old Loki heh. Yet as I am utterly addicted to DS, I fear I am using wintendo in the only capacity it performs more or less well in.

Linux plays games?!

 

[FatBusinessman]

Only text-based ones, of course. They wouldn't want to act like normal people, would they?

 

[Testin da Cable]

depends how you'd define normal mate. and no, not only text based games

...and even then it's only the chinese that "invest" in it, when they could have just downloaded it off the net

Don't make me post a picture of you on a TK rampage on RTCW


Linux is the ultimate Q3 platform.

If you could take AIDS and put it on a CD it would probably resemble Linux.

What about Unix?

Linux games are largely ports of very old windows based games, bar UT and Q3.

I reckon that'd make a good avatar for a QIII/RtCW/MOHAA/JKII peep on dial-up.












Gah! I'm going to bed.
