 - Perfect on LinuxGraphics are just as good if not better with an Nvidia based card. PLUS!...they sell the Team Area install disk for linux too!!!! Rating: - I wish it wasn't out of stock.It sounds like a cool game. I'm rating it on what I heard. If they get more Quake 3 for Linux games I will buy it. Games for Linux are cool. It isn't on an unstable operating system like Windows 95/98/ME. Linux is so stable and I think that games would play good on Linux but Linux programs are harder to install than Windows. Rating: - AWESOME: UNDER [price]- AND IT WORKS ON WINDOWS?Let me start by saying this is the first game I've even purcased for linux-and i am not a considered a gamer. BUT for those of you who are debating buying this game, let me clear it up-BUY IT! Cool collectors tin, linux version (rocks on my debian box), suse included, AND it INCLUDES the windows version!!!! The linux version was a little bit tricky to install, but I think that may depend on my distro and my obsolete video card. BE WARNED: This product SAYS it works on a 4meg video card, but I couldn't get it to, not only until i upgraded my video card was I able to get it working. I also had to upgrade X, to version 4, for the nvidia drivers. I am running debian potato, on a p2 400mhz, with a newly bought geforce2 32mg video card (nvidia) and this game does great (although im not much of a gamer) it seems to run perfect. Debian was kinda tricky to get started, since my X wasn't up to date, but this copy of Quake3 INCLUDES a version of SuSe! Which i've heard is easier to install. As for the windows part of the cd: there is *NO* documentation, however, for windows, except for the FAQ @ loki's website. I had it working right away for windows, after a download from the web, and file transfer from the CD. If you would like to see more great games like this, buy it and support loki software! They did a great job on this! And the tin is cool!:) Rating: - No question, it rocks!Quake III is one of the greatest games of all time! I give it an even higher rating now that I don't have to use Windoze to play it. The only drawback is that it's a little more difficult to install than on a Windows box, but haven't we all gotten a little too used to the one click install wizard anyway? Rating: - Amazing!This has to be the greastest game I have ever playied. The support for Linux is completely amazing! The biggest draw back is the copy protection methods, using a CD key server, some times causes problem when playing LAN games with no connection to the net. Besides that, its a REALLY great game!
