I'm looking for quality games to run on a old linux laptop. Specifically a X200s thinkpad. Currently I'm playing shadowrun dragon fall. and it's working pretty well. Anybody have recommendations?

Yes! Those are both excellent games, don't think I ever finished fallout 2, I'll try that next.

Thank you.

Urban Terror

Cube 2 Sauerbraten

They are probably not as active as they used to be but I believe there should still be a handful of servers around. They are multiplayer fps btw.

I've had issues where Deus Ex, when run under WINE, would be a lot darker than on Windows. I've heard that it's related to OpenGL. Have you found a fix for that? In my case, the game is dark enough to affect actual gameplay.

Battle for Wesnoth, Nethack, OpenMW for Morrwind, Alephone for the Marathon games, Arx Libertatis for Arx Fatalis (get the git version though).

Either mess around with RetroArch/Emus or try Devil Daggers. The classic is GZDoom with WADs or Quake & its mods.

It runs fine for me. But I've never played it under Windows so I have no comparison

It's an "old" (2008?) laptop and running linux on it gives me much higher performance and security than windows would do.

I'm on almost the same model running Debian. Here are some games I've had good luck with.

>Heroine's Quest (free)

>Baldur's Gate 2 (can't vouch for Enhanced Edition, but GemRB version is highly playable though annoying to configure if you don't know what you're doing)

>Doom/Heretic/Hexen/Strife with their many source ports. Chocolate for authenticity, GZDoom for greatest compatibility, PRBoom+ for somewhere between, Zandronum+Doomseeker for online play.

>Dune II through Dune Legacy.

>This port/remake of Dungeon Master and Chaos Strikes Back (http://dmweb.free.fr/?q=node/851)

>Freeciv

>Hotline Miami (I haven't played 2 so I don't know about that)

>Marathon Trilogy (you can get it through PlayDeb)

>NEO Scavenger

>Nethack (CLI or X11)

>Quake through Darkplaces (runs better than Quakespasm, oddly)

>Jedi Academy and Jedi Outcast through OpenJK/OpenJO (I had to compile OpenJO myself, but it's not hard)

>Wolfenstein 3D through ECWolf

For emulators, PPSSPP for PSP games is good. Mednafen runs all of its systems like a champion (PSX, GBA, NES, SNES and a bunch of others), and there's Mednaffe if you want a GUI. Stella is good for Atari 2600 games (all 5 worth playing!). Some DOSBox games like Daggerfall or Tomb Raider will need you to set cycles to max. ScummVM, of course, works fine.

Here are the games I currently have installed through Wine.

>Alpha Centauri

>Blood CM

>Guild Wars

>Neverwinter Nights (which does have a native Linux client, but you can't mod it to replace the server list with one that actually works)

>Outlaws

>Shadow Warrior through SWP

>Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 and Mysteries of the Sith (run these in a virtual desktop)

>The Typing of the Dead

I've also had luck with Unity engine games like Cuphead and Ultima Underworld Exporter. Just make sure you run them with the '–force-opengl' flag. Deus Ex works great if you use DeusExe (legacy version) and switch to the OpenGL renderer. Fallout 1 and 2 used to run like shit but now work like they're native ports. Arcanum was 100% playable other than longer loading times, which may have been fixed since I last tried it.

Your life will be much easier if you use Lutris.

>>14205001

Adjust the gamma in-game, though that messes up the system's gamma for me after exiting. So run 'xgamma -gamma 1' afterwards or launch it through Lutris so you can check the box to automatically reset gamma.

Run it in Wine and you'll never need another game in your life.

It works pretty well on my X200. Usually get 50-60FPS though have drops in some places. If you set the lighting to Retro among a few other tweaks it runs way better.
