“CrossOver Games 8.0 adds support for Left4Dead and
Tales of Monkey Island (Steam version only). Other titles include
Perfect World International’s games Perfect World, Jade Empire, and
Ether Saga, as well as Aeria Games’ Dragon Sky, Shaiya (English
versions only), and unofficial support for their Last Chaos title
on Linux. In addition, numerous fixes and enhancements for
Half-Life 2, Team Fortress 2, Spore, Guild Wars, Civilization IV,
Bejeweled and unsupported titles such as EVE Online, Lord of the
Rings Online, Pharaoh, City of Heroes and Lego Starwars have been
added.

“”Perhaps the biggest news in this release is support for
Left4Dead, the incredibly popular first-person shooter,” said
Jeremy White, president and CEO of CodeWeavers. “And, before all
you zombie-rights people start getting on my case, I’d just like to
state for the record that CodeWeavers is an equal-opportunity
employer, and we’re certainly in favor of equal rights for zombies
everywhere. But having said that, and speaking personally, I’m
quite pleased the game runs as well as it does under CrossOver.
Because zombies need to die. Especially hunters.””
