CrossOverGamesforLinux is officially released-general Linux technology-Linux technology and application information. The following is a detailed description. Yesterday, CodeWeavers officially released similar products of CrossOver Office: CrossOver Games. Through GrossOver Games, we have a convenient and fast Windows game platform in Mac and Linux, which can greatly enhance the entertainment of the original system. The GrossOver family is developed based on Wine and is specially optimized and set for specific software to run Windows software conveniently.
Specifically, GrossOver Office is used to run Windows Office software, while GrossOver Games is dedicated to Games, which are positioned the same as Cedega.
You will be concerned about the gameplay of CrossOver Games.
CrossOver Games supports heavyweight Games such as Half Life, EVE, and World of WarCraft by default. You can also choose to install other Games, which is relatively free. With good support for the first three major games, I believe it should be easy for other games.
What about game performance?
According to Phoronix's evaluation, the comparison between running 3D Mark 2001 SE on Windows Vista, Wine 0.9.58, and CrossOver Games shows that CrossOver wins the victory only when Vertex Shader loses to Vista, the rest have many advantages. Of course, CrossOver Games scored higher than Wine, which proves that it has indeed made a lot of optimization for the game.
However, only 3 DMark 2001 SE does not prove everything. We can only know that CrossOver Games's performance is not affected by the Linux platform.
For detailed evaluation, see CodeWeavers CrossOver Games Preview.
As a commercial software, CrossOver Games is priced at $39.95, which is still relatively expensive.
The following figure shows CrossOver Games in Ubuntu 8.04 Beta:
