Play Linux Games From A Live DVD

,----[ Quote ]
| When it comes to gaming in Linux, one of the most frequently faced problems 
| is the sourcing of the game code then compiling and installing them on your 
| machine. While some games provide easy ways to install them or are found in 
| the distro’s software repository, there are plenty of games that come in pure 
| binary source code and require you to compile, make and install, all of which 
| are like a nightmare to many Linux newbies.

,----[ Quote ]
| GameLayers' Passively Multiplayer Online Game (PMOG), which allows users to 
| immerse themselves in a virtual world of adventures, challenges, and 
| intrigue, has been picking up traction thanks in part to its robust open 
| source framework. Underpinning the popular online game is Ruby on Rails, a 
| full-stack framework for developing database-backed Web applications that

MIB Live Games

,----[ Quote ]
| MIB Live Games is a treasure trove for Linux gamers; at last count over 100
| games, 48 in arcade alone. As it is based on Mandriva 2008, the setup (and
| possible installation) are a breeze; to say that everything is included out
| of the box on this remaster of Mandriva 2008 ‘One’ would be an understatement
| indeed.    
|
| [...]
|
| For those in Asia, using the original Mandriva 2008 ‘One’ Asia edition is
| preferable as this remaster only offers major European languages at the
| starting configuration screen, though again they are not that difficult to
| add once the system is installed.

Open Source Gaming Review: Linux Gamers Live DVD 0.9.2

,----[ Quote ]
| Overall I like this live dvd of popular free Linux games and I wish the 
| absolute best to the developers of the Linux-Gamers.net Live DVD and I want 
| to encourage them to continue their work. It?s very, very much appreciated. 
| While it?s still got some growing to do, and some bugs to iron out, it really 
| has been a very enjoyable distribution to experiment with. I especially like 
| the idea that I can take it with me anywhere I go and play some of my 
| favorite Linux games, even if the system I?m playing it on doesn?t have 
| Linux.
