Linux games suck.  Not the gameplay, that’s usually pretty cool, although nothing like the quality of a good Windows, Sega, Sony, or X-Box Game… but the installation.  Good god, I’m pretty technical, but this takes the cake…  why linux didn’t break into the game market. So I downloaded this great game called ‘racer’ for linux. Its screenshots were snappy and cute as heck with nifty graphics and etc. But installing it, well, it just goes to show you why linux has a long way to go to enter the ‘gaming market’.
