PC games on Linux - Uuaww - 2011-04-09

I am running linux on a Revo. Is there a way to play PC .exe games on xbmc running that system or is it a no go?

You can use Wine to run some Windows games...check their website for a list of what games work. If by "on XBMC" you mean game roms such as emulators then it's a bit more difficult I tried a couple of Linux based emulators but could never get anything to work properly.

Emulators work well in Linux. Check out the Advanced Launcher thread for info. There is a Wiki that Angelscry started with tons of good info. I have emulators for NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, Playstation, Playstation 2, N64, GameCube and Wii working.
