[NBLUG/talk] [WLUG] I want to play Windows games on Fedora

[Steven M Campbell]

That's a bigger game than the game itself.  I've had my best luck just 
running them under Wine, with the exception of WoW (which can run better 
under Wine/Linux on a multicore than under Windows) you will not get the 
performance of a dedicated game machine... even under a virtual machine 
like full blown vmware games suffer.

With wine you have to make sure you have the 3d stuff all enabled on 
your video card and not on your desktop manager (no 3d effects).
