Myth II Linux Demo

I'm getting closer and closer to just reformating my Windows drive to ext2fs (to hold all the new Linux games. ;) " Now that I've downloaded it, I have no issues Slashdotting it :) This will be the first Loki game I've tried - I'm curious to see what it's like. And while we're on the subject, Loki seems to have redone their website..

  1. Linux bundled with the game? by Hanno · · Score: 4

    Don't know if anybody else thought of this already, but I'd like to see something like a true "boot and play" game CD. One that brings its own OS, so to speak.

    The CD would include a stripped-down Linux distribution with all the libraries and drivers needed for the game. No installation of a complete system is necessairy - all you need to do is boot the CD (or copy a few files on your system's harddrive and run it with loadlin or lilo).

    When new drivers come along, the game manufacturer could update the files of its "distribution".
