Sorry to join this discussion very late, as usual. I think everyone of us would like that every game had a native Linux port but we all know that is...
I am a little late joining this thread but in my previous tests I didn't find any difference between vanilla Wine and Wine-Staging in Playonlinux:...
Does the installer automatically use the DVD to install the game? Yes, it does. Having said that, however, in my opinion you shouldn't bother with a...
There was an interesting discussion on Reddit some time ago about eON, focused in part on the poor performance of Witcher 2, a game which was ported...
