I am not sure if this was irony or not... If it was, it is a very, very lousy one:

Doom3 runs perfectly on linux, and (!) there is no driver cheating (lowering pic quality) in linux. Therefore, it looks better (although a bit slower) in linux.

I think its time to educate yourselves in open source way Wink

And Paul, Linux can indeed run allmost anything - well, even Vista!

A shame that Microsoft Fight Simulator 2004 & 2006 aka X don't run since they are most important to me heh. for FS 2004 I use Win2K Pro for 2006 I have to use XP Pro oh well it has been fully tweaked so all the crap has been taken out of it, it's almost the same size as 2000 Pro now LOL hahaha

Such a shame that Linux ain't that user friendly compared to Windows 2000 Pro, which is still the best OS imho, since it works perfectly with everything and it get's to the point.

@elfuego - hmm..partially true.

Linux games fall into one of three categories:

1)Direct port - games that directly support linux

2)Open Source - games ported by individuals

3)Emulated - either through D3D amulator or O.S. emulators such as WiNE, etc...

Even then, not ALL games will be supported - but you are correct in saying that the majority indeed are.

Not yet, but soon my friend

In a few years, when linux becomes more popular, some things are going to change and games are one of them.
Thanks to Vista that sucks, and great beryl/compiz linux 3D interface (and not only that) linux is becoming more popular. I mean, even Obi tried it

That's a start! In a few years he's going to be a linux guru 8) Then we're about to see native linux games and say M$ good riddance.

well 3dfx Glide support is most of importance and still 98SE as 2000 Pro are better at it, but there are plenty 3dfx Gide Games for Linux which is cool 8) it's going the right way even for the new gen stuff, but since I'm a pro ATi/3dfx user I prefer ATi support for Linux which isn't the case so far, driver have somewhat improved but the Geforce cards seem to be the best choice for new gen cards for the Linux OS.

For everyone that still belives in M$:

and a leaked win 2000 code:

"Moving swiftly on to 2004, I met with one of the biggest disappointments of my life. Part of the source code to Windows 2000 was leaked onto the net and – yes, you’ve guessed – I took a little peek at it. Instead of the finely honed (well, fairly finely honed) assembler code which had graced the early days of MSDOS, I found a vast sprawl of spaghetti in assembler, C, C++, all held together with blu-tack. The sources contained many now-famous comments including “We are morons” and “If you change tabs to spaces, you will be killed! Doing so f***s the build process”."
