Woah, time flies! Didn't actually started using Linux as gaming option till 2/3 years ago but not coming back any time soon -Top Windows- and each day happier with the posibilities it brings me.

About the Steam Machines... if they can do something similar to a Nintendo Switch they will have my money (more of it, I mean) and my hours of gaming.

On ports from a yearly released game, and based on sports, I always wonder whether there are more base users for F1 than for basket or football... Would be great to see a NBA or FIFA/PES game on our platform to be honest.

Good for F1 fans anyway :)

Great list, thanks!

I don't normally like FPS, specially multiplayer ones, but some story-driven action packed everynow and then are more than welcome. Will wishlist some for my next round of monthly games :D

Quoting: dannielloCrossOver Linux is completely separate from wine prefixes, so you could use both.

Generally CrossOver is more stable. For example if they said that they support Microsoft Office 2013 - it should work very stable. In wine it is lottery - something that is working in version 2.17 - could be broken in 2.18, etc.

CrossOver is based on stable wine builds, so generally they are much older versions. Playing in The Witcher 3 or GTA5 - forget for now, but who knows... maybe in next stable version;)

Also users that bought CrossOver Linux could vote what app/game is important to them, so if you want play The Witcher 3 in wine (and in future versions of CrossOver) - you should vote for it:)

CrossOver has its own GUI where you could select supported app/game (for example MS Office 2013) and wizard will show you what to do (select .exe installer or something). Manual installation of "unknown" (not officially supported) software also is possible.
CrossOver also is using its own prefixes (bottles), so apps/games could be separated.

I see, thanks for the explanation. Will take it into consideration then :)

On a different topic, out of the box with this version of Wine I don't get any stuttering so far on The Witcher 3 and don't see any other major issues.

I was also able to install Origin and the first Mass Effect. Origin, however, thinks there is always an update to perform in new downloaded games. In order to play Origin must be forced closed and re-opened.

Mass Effect works out of the box as well but with no sound. I then went to winetricks and installed ogg, directmusic and directsound. Probably not all of them needed but these seemed to solve the issue.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPThe one thing Wine truly needs is a good UI.

Perhaps you should try CodeWeavers CrossOver Linux. CodeWeavers it is company that is mainly responsible for wine development.

It is sad that company that develop wine is existing only because of... CrossOver Mac buyers.
I'm in minority that bought CrossOver Linux to support developers.

How does crossover actually works? I mean, is it a GUI for wine? Do I need to install wine separately? what version of wine does it use? Can Wine and crossover be installed at the same time?
