Linux games

Post by schnob »

So i just got Linux Mint 10 a few days ago, dual booted with Windows 7. I used to play League of Legends all the time before, but now I dont like going back to Windows. Is there any way to get LoL on Linux? If so how? And if not are there any other games like LoL that Linux will run?

You can in stall Wine and see if it runs through that.

I would like to point out that there are many on here that hang on to a windows partition just for one or 2 little purposes. other than that they stay on Linux. With LoL that may be what you have to do for the moment until another solution comes up

I got LoL installed, but whenever I try to run it I get an error saying there is a deficiency in Wine.
