LXer: How many of your games run on Linux?


Published at LXer:

Gamer? Check. Linux user? Check.For years, one of the top excuses I heard from friends who would otherwise have switched to Linux long ago is that they just couldn't give up their Windows-only games.

I can't play the Unreal series natively, nor can I play the Fallout games. I do get to play Half-Life and Portal games as well as things like Serious Sam.
I don't game much but if I did I'd need Windows.
