Re: swtor

You hate windows but I bet you purchased the game anyway to support EA's decision to not release natively on Linux, and then if they get the game working on Wine, you'll be happy to play on the lowest graphic settings with glitches and missing textures all over the place.

No wonder EA have no interest in releasing native games on Linux, people pay them regardless!

Swtor works now quite well with wine 1.5.0 but you have to patch it first.
