Rainbow Six 3 Raven Shield. It's the only thing I use Windows for. Now my W2K partition is knackered, I'm becoming desperate.

The common mistake made by the software industry is the assumption that Linux users don't want pay for software.
The truth is: they don't want to spend a pile of money for a buggy, insecure and non-transparent piece of compiled
code, when they can get a better program for free. But I payed already for some useful programs expanding the
functionality of my llnux installation. And I would pay for good games as well. So what about HL2 for Linux???

Anyone know if World of Warcraft is going to work in Crossover or WINE? I am getting ready to instally Fedora core2, and wondering if I am going to be able to play the game I have already preorded. Would hate to have to play it in Windows, but if I have to I will. Just wondering if anyone knows anything I dont. Thanks.

"According to Half-Life Fallout, Transgaming Technologies has announced that they will be releasing version 4.2 of Cedega, their Wine based software allowing some DirectX games to be played under Linux. The new version will be released Dec 7th with official support included for Valve Software's Half-Life 2 and Steam, Valve's online software store and distribution system, and a required component of Half-Life 2."

i have a short but sweet list....

Hal-Life 2(play on winows...amasing pysics engine, the hype was a little right)
Rise Of Nations
Warcraft 3(i am the warchief, damn you!!)
CS source
Postal 2
Soldier Of Fortune 2
and several others.

plus a better port of medal of honor, still, on alpha 0.3....has no voices, all it needs now, then ka'zam, it'd be perfect.

I'm trying so much to get rid of windows, but linux, is still not that much better.

evan though linux is supposed to be used for servers..etc but programmers and server admins need a break, am i wrong? come on guys, why don't we protest, yeh, that'll...sorry, wrong post....lmao games, games, thats what we need dammit, why? cuys there fun.......and anyway, who says I payee for my copym of windows anyway*cough*

How about...

Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon
TES: Morrowind
TES: Oblivion (when it comes out)
Wizardry 8
Return to Zork
Zork Nemesis
Zork Grand Inquisitor

Interestingly... I was going to add the first two "Simon the Sorcerer" games, but then thought hey, you can play those with ScummVM (same with the first two "Broken Sword" games). SC3K was released by the lamented Loki, and isn't someone working on an OSS Fallout 1 and/or 2 clone? "Soldier of Fortune" has a Linux binary... somewhere. NeverWinter Nights has a native Linux version. I'm surprised at just how many games I have are playable under Linux (but then, perhaps it's not so surprising - I brought the first two "Broken Sword" and "Simon the Sorcerer" games so I could play them with ScummVM, and I knew there were Linux versions of SoF, SC3K and NWN).
