Gaming on linux..... Its not a hard task to do..but you will have a lot of performance issues, even if you have a super computer. The game has to be setted to be played on linux too, not only mac or windows. Otherwise you can use wine to start it up, but as i said, You'll just run into bugs.

Very true, the best option if you need linux is just to dual boot Linux and Windows, I *used* to do it until my HDD died a while ago.

Please, just don't. To run linux you need a windows capable machine, so just bite the bullet and install windows, even if it is just for gaming.

First, the operating system is free. You have tremendous savings on that. Linux consumes much less system resources than Windows. The system update is much better than the competition.Lots of people say linux gaming is a future.
