Vote for GOG to add Linux versions of games they sell

Most of the GoG games run through wine anyway. I have bought lots of gog games and tried them through wine and a vast majority of them run fine. Hell i even got the old Moto Racer from gog and got that running in D3D mode..Ahh gold old days

Really? I been finding Wine as a pain for games, but back in 2009. Would it haven't gotten more well updated for 2013?

PlayOnLinux, a front shell for wine, has many scripts specifically for installing GOG releases. I have installed quite a few Windows games, including Skyrim (from Steam).

The guy running this campaign and that generous contributor he speaks of are pretty damn cool in my opinion! Read to the end and you'll see why.

Very interesting development...

I've always liked GOG so I voted.

Here's a short piece on the subject by Gaming On Linux.

Great idea. I'm already a big fan of GoG and have bought many games on this site. Linux versions would be even better. I have a nice collection of backed up WINE bottles of GoG games.

Is GOG.com About To Support Linux?

Basically I (we) see a big potential in Linux beyond the 1% . Currently Linux sales either just break even or yield a very small profit. But Rome wasn't built in a day.

We don't have a higher idealistic goal about freedom of choice - not more than it meaning that we'll reach a bigger audience.

In the end of the day Paradox makes hardcore games for smart gamers who want smart games - I think the average Linux user just happens to overlap with our niche business quite well.

Source. Wish GOG saw it that way as well.
