A reality slap.


So no point to make then, cool, I can get back to playing games then


Make sure to use MAME as well, those arcade games are also Linux, apparently.


1. Nobody said anything about Windows games being Linux games. We were talking about Linux gaming, which is gaming on Linux. Which - yeah - emulators also contribute to

2. Above being said, translation is not emulation and has much less overhead So many pointless semantics to dismiss something genuinely good and useful


Translation is one form of emulation, because GNU/Linux still isn't Windows, at the end of the day.


No, it is not. Right there in the name of WINE.
