Classic Games (Games)

GOG.com Announces Linux Support 81

For years, Good Old Games has made a business out of selling classic PC game titles completely free of DRM. Today they announced that their platform now supports Linux. They said, We've put much time and effort into this project and now we've found ourselves with over 50 titles, classic and new, prepared for distribution, site infrastructure ready, support team trained and standing by ... We're still aiming to have at least 100 Linux games in the coming months, but we've decided not to delay the launch just for the sake of having a nice-looking number to show off to the press. ... Note that we've got many classic titles coming officially to Linux for the very first time, thanks to the custom builds prepared by our dedicated team of penguin tamers. ... For both native Linux versions, as well as special builds prepared by our team, GOG.com will provide distro-independent tar.gz archives and support convenient DEB installers for the two most popular Linux distributions: Ubuntu and Mint, in their current and future LTS editions.

It's a public disgrace not to, that's why.

Wow so you are that naïve. Amazing.

Says the guy being ass fucked by his government and trying to pretend that they actually care about him. Stockholm syndrome must be nice. If they cared about listening to the regular person they wouldn't be doing what they're doing.

Welfare hasn't existed since the mid 90s. Bill Clinton signed the law that abolished it. Secondly, unemployment doesn't last forever. So even if people were doing that, which no one has proved more than a small minority is doing, it's not like they could live on it for more than a year or so.
