I am guilty of this and have well and truly caught up on lost gaming time over the past couple of weeks. And I hope you have too. Now is an exciting time for Linux and gaming as we are currently in the middle of a transition of traditional native gaming to a format of several different types. Where will the future of gaming go? And more importantly, what will it mean for Linux gamers? Currently, there are several different paths that have forked from the traditional method of installing games on to the operating system. Let’s examine what options we currently have and what could possibly be around the corner.
