   Comments: Native port is better than winelib and winelib is better than Wine + original Windows binary, but it's always better to have some piece of software working good under Wine than being unable to use it at all under OS of your choice.

    Comments: Anyone advising NOT supporting games on multiple platforms using Wine or any other technique (including native support) has neither the players' nor the developers' interest at heart.

    Comments: Wine should be used for existing Windows games porting. In future products, starting with OpenGL and other open source toolkits will make your porting job so much easier.

    Comments: Use what ever tools you want to develop your software for Linux, Windows, or whatever OS(s) you choose. Release your software under whatever license and under whatever terms you choose. Who are we to place requirements on how you develop software? It is not our right, nor is it our place to make demands on how YOU write and release software. It is shameful that a small percentage of the community including RMS believes that it is unethical to entertain the freedom to build software the way you choose rather than the way they choose. Free software does NOT mean freedom the way we give it to you because that is NOT freedom at all. /rant

    Comments: Wine is a great tool for things just like this. Of course they should keep doing it.

    Comments: Imagine how much more business game developers will receive when they can market the MILLIONS of linux users. Is there any benefit to not develop for linux?

    Comments: I definitely agree on this. The more we encourage game developers to consider Wine, the more we help the Linux gaming industry.

    Comments: Wine can be helpful in porting. Something is better than nothing. Of course native ports are even better, but Wine ports are better than no port :)

    Comments: While it would be great if every game could be developed natively with native tools right away, there are many cases where this has not happened. I worry that the alternative in these cases would otherwise be 'no game at all'. I personally enjoy playing games (native or not) on my Linux system.
