<br>I think UT3 is the last game that is going to be ported to Linux until next UE tech-demo (I wonder if UT3 is using 3.5 engine after 2.0 patch or something?). Maybe ported UE3 will trigger few other games being ported, but seems that no one is interested anymore (2 years of porting is the matter of possibility, but not good for consumable product).<br>
<br>If we'll get Unreal Editor ported too, we'll get few Linux-user-made mods but nothing more. Enjoy your Quake Live :)<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/8/31 Keith Z-G <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:keithzg@gmail.com" target="_blank">keithzg@gmail.com</a>></span><div>

times, then Carmack is going to get bored some day, port Rage and all<br>
of Tech 5 to Linux, release it, and eventually open source it all<br>
before the UT3 Linux client gets released. Okay, admittedly that<br>
probably won't happen now that ZeniMax bought up id Software (so he<br>
might not even be able to make good on his promise to eventually<br>
release Tech 4), but really now. Ryan himself has had time to port an<br>
entire other game (Prey) in the meantime while UT3 sits in limbo!<br>
<br>
Personally though I *do* think that it matters if the port is<br>
completed, since in theory that'd mean that UE3 would be ported to<br>
Linux and thus future games could be released/ported, even if no one<br>
is playing UT3 by that point. Of course, often these games aren't<br>
even being ported to *Windows*, but you catch my drift.<br>
<br>
Oh well, back to playing Quake Live.<br>
