Games galore on XP/Windows. None on Ubuntu.



I have been running Linux for a few years... while not all games are easy to get running on Linux, I have been able to get many going fine ;^)
Whether it be through WINE or PlayOnLinux, the games ARE there. I've actually been able to get Crysis 2 running well.. and it runs faster (more FPS) and cooler (on GPU).. That one was a pain to get set up though :p

Running Winblows Kerbal and MineCraft now with no problems.

Oh, btw, running Mint KDE (Kubuntu).
