So,
Since there is a nice debate on Windows and Mac gaming (which can be found over here , I ask the question in its own thread:
"Why aren't more developers wanting to port their titles over to the Linux platform?"
In addition, since WINE 4.0 has now been released, why worry! Yes, not all games are gonna work via WINE obviously, though many will (especially after removing that "NVDA.dll" file.)
This discussion ain't just for getting help with running your favorite game running on Windows, but also to have some "friendly debate" on the matter. I am however gonna expect bashing from "Windows" fans I'm sure.
So, which games have a Linux port already?
The only "official" ones I know of, are
1. RS Games
2. Sound RTS
3. Quentin C's PlayRoom Web Client
For "Arch" users (including folks running the Jenux OS distro,) an archive featuring all of the available "PCS DOS" games (including the "DOSBox" emulator,) is available in the AUR (specificly the "Jenux" one.)
NB. If any of the above is incorrect for any reason, correct me please!
Most interactive fiction games and MUDS of course work under Linux, though the client you use of course will vary. I'll talk more about that down the line.
Anyway, time to hear your input people... Also if you are Linux user (regardless if you use it alongside Windows or Mac,) which distro do you use for gaming on?
Take care all!
