How to Play Classic Console Games in Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| If youâre reading this, thereâs a good
| chance you grew up with classic video game
| consoles like the NES and Sega Genesis. For
| years Windows users have been enjoying high
| quality game emulation software, but many
| of the Linux options have been buggy or
| incomplete. Itâs time to take a look at
| where things stand when it comes to playing
| console games in Linux. Here at
| MakeTechEasier, weâve touched on console
| game emulation here and there, but never
| done a guide covering multiple systems.
| Today, weâll show you how to run games for
| NES, SNES, Genesis, original Playstation,
| and Dreamcast.

Interactive Ideas boosts gaming offering
,----[ Quote ]
| There's something to be said for having a
| diverse product portfolio. As we heard
| earlier in the year, North London
| distributor Interactive Ideas has been
| doing very nicely on the back of its strong
| Linux for enterprise offering. But at this
| time of year, its peripherals business
| comes to the fore.

Widelands (RTS Game): An Open Source Settlers I & II Remake
,----[ Quote ]
| Widelands is an open source (works on
| Windows, Linux and Mac OSX) real-time
| strategy game, built upon the SDL and other
| open source libraries. If you knew Settlers
| I & II (Â Bluebyte), then you already have a
| rough idea what Widelands is all about
| because Widelands is heavily inspired by
| those two games.

Egoboo is a fun 3D Rogue-like game for Windows, Mac, and Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Egoboo is a (90 megabyte!!) 3D Rogue-like
| game. Rogue is a very, very old game -- the
| original adventure game, really -- and
| Egoboo builds on its legacy, throws in a
| little hack-and-slash... and it's even a bit
| of a RPG! There is loot, there are gribbly
| monsters that are out to eat your face, and
| there are plenty of pretty zones to explore
| (plus there's a map editor!)

Linux users: frag your online enemies without installing an application!
,----[ Quote ]
| This afternoon after I got home from work, I
| fragged my online enemies! What makes this
| remarkable is that I use Ubuntu Linux, and as
| everyone know gaming doesn't work on Linux
| (tongue-in-cheek comment there). What is even more
| amazing is that I didn't install an application to
| do this.
