Title: For my birthday...
Post by: iago on April 01, 2006, 04:43:56 AM
.. my friend got me a 4-pack of EA Games games.  Black&White Deluxe, Medal of Honor, Lord of the Rings, and Freedom Fighters.  I'm not entirely sure why he did, though, I'm pretty sure that he knows that a) I don't play games very often, and b) I don't use Windows.  *grumbles*

I wonder how well these run under Wine/Cedaga... :-/

Black & White is worth running Windows for.  Very fun ^^

Pfft, those are perfectly good reasons to give them to you.

It's obviously a very thoughtless present, you should for his birthday give *him* a wrapped box containing dog crap.  :)

Edit:

Changed "me" to "*him*".  Thanks Trust!  :)

Well, I was reading up, and at least two of them run perfectly, allegedly.

Nothing is worth running Windows for.

Well, they won't run under wine due to copy protection.  However, Medal of Honor ran perfectly 100% under Cedega.  I have yet to try the others, but I would bet that they run great too.  And I've finally lowered myself to installing cedege :-o

ON A MORE IMPORTANT NOTE DID YOU GET MY PRESENT?

You take a long time mailing things to me iago.  That's a bad trait.  You should fix it.  You never know, your next job application might ask "Have you helped out any Indians in the past decade?"  You could answer truthfully "Yes, I sent Lord of the Rings to my Indian friend in Minnesota."
