I’d like to, buy my hardware just doesn’t cut it…

Does AA support threading? Mb a silly question, but very irritating to see how few things outside of business crap supporting good threading implementation…

Wish I had time to play games, I am lucky to get 5 hours a week of game playing in. Hmm maybe Linux doesn’t have many games because the people who use Linux want to get work done (hence the reason they use Linux) therefore not many people play games in Linux. (HA!)
I did preorder NWN because I DO have game time and that game looks fun.

Why is he porting America’s Army to Linux when Transgaming WineX 3.0 supports it anyway? This will only muddle the Linux gaming market.

For a country that conscripts female soldiers and liberated Afghan women, I can’t believe my tax dollars goes into producing a game that deliberately exclude them! That is the biggest piece of macho propaganda I have ever seen! If these military top brass can’t take a hint where their birthplaces are, they should start getting estrogen injections!
