Hey all
Thought I would post a bit of info on Linux games since I am trying to put together info on them for the LEAD Social meeting.
Linux games you say? You have actual games on Linux? The answer is yes. There are many free games on Linux and some commercial ones too. Some, like Doom3, run on Windows and Linux. Unfortunately not all the games we like are available for Linux too so in those cases we have to look at windows emulators like Wine(free) or Cedega(Commercial).
If there are any games that you would like me to test or that you have working that everyone might enjoy at the social, let me know and I will take a look and report back. I tend to be kinda biased toward FPS games but I do enjoy the odd RPG or RTS.
Until later, have fun.
