Play On Linux

[Tux]

Supposedly another cedega-like app that let's you run winders games in linux, found it now while rummaging through the Packman Suse repos. Anybody ever try it before? Any good?

Will give it a testdrive and see how well it compares to cedega

Looks good. Will also give it a try someday

I seem to recall it is just an old version of WINE which was tweaked a little and offered a sort of front-end GUI but nothing more.

looks nice, probably just wine "pre-tweaked" for u. Worth taking a look at I reckon

I wonder when pc game dev's will start using opengl as the standard? Microsoft made a big mistake releasing dx10 only on vista.

Doubt if they'll revert..opengl kinda slacked behind at a stage pretty badly. Hopefully in the mean time they caught up again..and doesnt it maybe have something to do with what consoles support?

playstation & wii, and all cellphones use opengl.
could be a factor in explaining why microsoft is selling xbox at such cheap prices.

OpenGL 2.1 is really really advanced... comparative to DX10...
