Ports vs. Wine

  Date:May 08 2001

It has been a while since there has been a real debate going in the Linux gaming community, but recently a debate has raged over which was the better solution for bringing games to Linux.

On one side of the argument is Transgaming, which sees the reality that the process of creating native Linux ports is an extremely expensive procedure with very little monetary reward. Their solution is to refine and extend Wine...

On the other side of the issue are the porting houses such as Loki, Tribsoft, and Hyperion Entertainment. They have shown that Windows games can be ported successfully to Linux.
