Who of you buy Linux games and your experience


Hi Guys,

Recently I purchased a Linux game from an Online Store. I recieved the package after two days, great service. I am wondering who of you buy also Linux games and how many games do you have. What is your experience with Online Stores?

I now have Ankh, Descent III, Mindrover, Rune and Heroes 3. All games purchased from Online Stores without a problem.

I don't really play any PC games. Though I have played Enemy Territory a bit, which is a free download.

Although I have been considering buying Defcon, I really liked it.

UT2004 is a great choice, more it you got broadband and would like to play it online. It's a great experience

I bought Tribal Trouble, Savage, and UT2004 based on Linux support. Never had a problem.

Oh, NWN Diamond pack, also. Had no trouble using the installer at the site. Duh, also bought Quake 4 based on this. Doom 3 I didn't buy for this reason, but it works well, also.

Linux Installers for Linux Games is a great place to find installers for games that otherwise wouldn't have been so trivial for new users.
