UT2003 Gone Gold, Ships with Linux Support

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the unix-heads-like-games-too dept.

SiW writes "This announcement should be music to a Linux gamer's ears: Unreal Tournament 2003 has just gone gold, and supports Linux (client and server) out of the box!" It's not often that I get to play a new game without rebooting. I'm really looking forward to this.

    It's nice that on runs on linux, too bad the game is fruity as hell.

    What a terrible joke. Linux is Open Source kernel. GNU/Linux is Open Source operating system. UT2003 works only with closed source nVidia drivers. Compare it with Return To Castle Wolfenstein which works perfect with my old Voodoo3.
    Please do not talk about "Linux support" until S3TC will be deleted from UT2003.

    Dear Linus,

    I have no life. I run Linux because of its well earned reputation for being "the" loser operating system. Since I have become a Linux user, I have been exposed to a whole new world of loser friends, whom I instant message, IRC, and generally avoid any real life contact with. It is really a pleasure to compute with other geeks such as myself. I plan on using my new Linux operating system as a way to entice and recruit other introverted losers like myself; it would be so helpful if you could produce more software which would appeal to others like myself, such as Lego Mindstorms, or that gay Gimp piece of shit. Thanks in advance.

    I hate Windows! Linux r00ls!

      Dear Apple,
      I am a big homosexual. I bought an Apple computer because of its well earned reputation for being "the" gay computer. Since I have become an Apple owner, I have been exposed to a whole new world of gay friends. It is really a pleasure to meet and compute with other homos such as myself. I plan on using my new Apple computer as a way to entice and recruit young schoolboys into the homosexual lifestyle; it would be so helpful if you could produce more software which would appeal to young boys. Thanks in advance.
