    Dreamfall Chapters

    That is one of the elements which attracted me to it. Beautiful graphics and a 3D point-n-click environment. Kinda like The Testament of Sherlock Holmes

    Dreamfall Chapters

    I have been following Dreamfall as well. I'm very impressed with the quality! So is it a point-n-click adventure or a 3rd Person adventure? Seems like the later, but its hard to tell which videos are showing cut-scenes or game-play...

    GOG Galaxy and PlayOnLinux

    The strange thing was the game is in my Library just like all the other games. So I assumed it was a standard GOG download/installer. Maybe there is something about Galaxy in the fine print, but geesh, did they have to break the extraction process? Most retail games for Steam come with the...

    GOG Galaxy and PlayOnLinux

    Aliens vs Predator was available for free to promote GOG's new Galaxy client. So of course I picked it up! Little did I know, the Galaxy client is bundled in the executable. So naturally I would do my PlayOnLinux installation as per all of my guides and the installation would never start...

    Fist Of Jesus

    I noticed this game on Linux Game News You gotta watch the intro movie, its pretty stinking funny! Fist of Jesus is a comical bloody brawler take on Jesus during the Roman rule Play as Jesus and fight off hordes of zombies with power-ups, silly weapons and fatalities! The premise can be...

    Crowdfunding for Half-Life 3 harassment?

    This is funny! These two guys want to push Valve into making Half-Life 3 with a crowdfunding campaign. We Want Half-Life 3 Good idea, but probably isn't going to work.

    Simcity turns 25: a talk with creator Will Wright

    Those "sim" games are basically play as long as you want... right? There is no end to them because its a sandbox kind of strategy. Rollercoaster Tycoon had a campaign and you would have goals to meet. But you don't have to stop after meeting them... you can continue allowing your park to run...

    The Witcher 2 Guide

    It appears you are correct: Wine License I remember reading it somewhere, but I was absolutely wrong. This is good news!

    The Witcher 2 Guide

    If M$ wants to stop Wine it will be difficult. They can probably stop Crossover because they are "for profit" but Wine development is community based. So who do you prosecute? Also, Wine "Terms of use" is very clear that you need to own a copy of Window$. These days, who doesn't own a copy of...

    Guide Suggestions?

    Sure, I'll check out the FIFA 14 demo and see if I can get it running. By the way, I steer clear of Pirate Bay

    The Witcher 2 Guide

    Of course, no surprise. The only reason I'm curious is because most of my games are direct x ONLY games. A lot of them run on OpenGL, but I would love all of them to be OpenGL compatible. The only way for that to happen is developers. I've read it's a lot of work to convert Direct X game to...

    The Witcher 2 Guide

    When you say "implementation" you are referring to reverse technology correct? Otherwise, wouldn't it be a major copyright conflict without Microsofts permission? Or they would have to pay MS a lot of money to do it...

    Guide Suggestions?

    I looked up FIGA on Origin.com and found a trial, but the first problem will be Origin client. PlayOnLinux has always had a problem with games in Origin I have tried several games and they refuse to run: Kindoms of Amalur Battlefield 3 I can try FIFA as well, but of course with low...

    Guide Suggestions?

    Welcome to the forum freire! I don't own a copy of FIFA or any sports games for that matter. Do you know if there is a demo or a trial period for that game? I have noticed on the PlayOnLinux forums that people are having problems with FIFA in Linux. Every once in a while I find a game that just...

    The Witcher 2 Guide

    Wow, that is a heafty GTX 670MX in your laptop! I'm surprised it can run The Witcher 2 on high settings. I'm still impressed with Wine and its ability to compete with Direct X in Window$
