| | Linux users: World of Warcraft port petition - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums |
 | | Saying that Linux users are more likely to pirate software is a completely baseless claim. | | | In linux, I have only one piece of piracy software, and that's because it's not really available in linux or has a compeditive alternative. | | | Linux users, proportionally speaking, almost assuredly have a drastically higher tendency to pirate software than Windows users. |

| | Curmudgeon Gamer - 10 Points to Consider Before Buying Cedega |
| | And with millions of Linux users all having different favorite games, I'm sure mods made to Cedega will eventually be compiled into one super-emulator(much like the idea behind the Fedora packages). | | | While TransGaming offers a free development version of Cedega, they have repeatedly threatened Linux distributions that have offered packages of it to their users. | | | Debian and Gentoo have both withdrawn packages of the development version of Cedega at the request of TransGaming, who stated that they would no longer offer the free version if it was packaged by third-party Linux distributions. |

| | Linux vs. Windows? - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums |
| | Even a single instance of a MMORPG is likely to have multiple server machines, so Linux could well be a big cost saving. | | | Posted - 10/2/2002 9:02:26 PM One advantage Linux has is its free and for a MMORPGs need a few servers, so unless you have alot of upfront capital Windows falls out of the running. | | | I dont know about current mmorpgs but generally a well configured linux server is much more stable than a windows one. |

| | While I understand transgaming's stance, it also seems clear that most linux gamers are more attracted to action, FPS or RTS type games. | | | Of course, it's not a big problem to cheat when running them under windows, but think of a machine running DAoC and the same Machine also running Excalibur... | | | Well, NWN works well under WineX and you can view the videos too, something you can't do in the Linux beta (and probably final). |

| | Serious game - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography |
| | Serious games are designed to run on personal computers (such as a PC running Microsoft Windows or Linux or an Apple Macintosh) or video game consoles (such as the Xbox or PlayStation 2). | | | Instead of volumes of media or computers for high-end simulators, SGs require nothing more than a DVD or even a single CD-ROM, exactly like traditional computer and video games require. | | | Games from websites such as Newgaming.com are "very political games groups made outside the corporate game system" that are "raising issues through media but using the distinct properties of games to engage people from a fresh perspective," says Henry Jenkins, the director of MIT's comparative media studies program. |
