Feel free to try newer versions of wine! I'm sure they will work and have better performance.

I'm not a distro hopper or tester, but I really like Mint 17 and openbox desktop. You can install all of your games in Cinnamon, but when you are ready to play with some extra performance, log into Openbox and just open Steam. Otherwise Ubuntu is great and I've heard Manjaro is another...

I've heard DRM free games in Steam can be launched directly from the games .exe Never tried though.

Awesome! Thanks for confirming! Have you tried them with a newer version of Wine like: 1.7.26

I was reading this Wiki about the North American video game crash of 1983 Very interesting and sounds a lot like what is going on today... Of course its scaled 10 times larger and we are losing PC/Console gamers to phones... But I recognize some similarities in today game market: Oversaturation...

I can't believe Mirror's Edge doesn't work anymore. I had to update the guide when Wine broke after a Steam update. That was Wine 1.7.8 But I wonder if Wine 1.6.2 stable will still work with Mirror's Edge. Nobody has posted any bugs yet. I'll check WineHQ's I always though Evil Dead looked...

Hey Dem, not sure if it works, haven't tried Star Trek in the long time. The Arc installation should work and then you can download Star Trek Online from there.

Check it out! I was right! Now I have Bioshock 2 and Minerva's Den in Steam!

Here is a list of games that have retail copies and can be activated in Steam. This way you no longer have to use the CD/DVD's any longer and you will get the updates/patches as well. Retail Games that can be activated in Steam Note: Only the retail games listed above can be registered...

Turns out I can activate Bioshock 2 retail on Steam: Bioshock 2 2K then says that I should get Minerva's Den for free since I had previously purchased Bioshock 2. Trying this over the weekend and will test in Linux again. Thanks for the tips MrDeathJr!

No way! So if you add the DLC for Bioshock 2, the GFWL is patched out? I gotta try that! Otherwise, I'm waiting for the publisher to release a patch that removed GFWL. I'll keep a watch out for it.

Did the script work for you? I was able to play Bioshock with the above instructions, but Bioshock 2 still doesn't work because of "Games For Windows Live" DRM. I actually tried Bioshock 2 this week with newer Wine 1.7.26 and it still doesn't work. I have not tried the organizing steam games...

Wow, how do you plan on playing all of those games? That is a lot of emulators! How is Evil Dead Regeneration? Is it fun?

Right now I'm in the middle of playing Assassin's Creed Revelations, Drakensang Online and Battlefield 3 singleplayer. Yes I'm playing Battlefield 3 in Windows.... I'm sorry, but for now its not running in Wine.

As I purchase bundles and games on sale... I found that my list is getting quite large. Post your games to play list: Bioshock 2 Mass Effect 2 Tomb Raider 2013 The First Templar Bioshock Infinite Dishonored Rage Two Worlds II Fable 3 Divinity II: Developers Cut Star Wars: Knights of the...

Exactly, its fun for a few computers in a LAN.

Yes, I still get notifications on our forum. I see those GDI errors. What version of Wine are you using? Also it errors GDI32, which probably means you either need Fallout 3 installed in a 32-bit virtual drive with 32-bit Wine or you need some 32-bit libraries in Linux.

Honestly, I really like Openbox. I can run any game with superlow processing desktop environment... almost like "safe mode" I don't have any custom menu's or anything, just use terminal to launch programs or nemo/nautilus. Some day I will investigate how to create some better menu's For the...

Its working fine now!

Last time I updated my status it wasn't working. I'll try again right now
