max payne

my brother recently baught max payne so i thought i'd give WineX a try seeing as it's a directx 8 game. i agree that documentation could be better since it took me awhile to get it to work (configuration adjustments) but then i was surprised at how well it works. my brother has by now beat the game in highest resolution with all details at the same speed as his windows installation played at and his linux usage (as opposed to windows usage) has increased dramatically.

now i wish there we could all let the game publishers know that we are actually playing their games in linux - if they get enough feedback they will probably consider having their games support linux natively... sometime...
