They have already cracked Xbox game downloads, and macOS support is also being worked on.

      For people like me who just adore and love the forza horizon series, it will be the only way to play without windows or repurchasing newer titles on steam. It’s a clear plus in my book. Fuck microslop tho.

          Tried. Pirating whilst playing online is quite the tricky thing to do without getting banned. :D

            Yikes. I don’t play many online games so I am not very knowledgeable on the situation over there. I just used online-fix a few times and it was so horrible I had to buy my second piece of paid software.

      Moving away from a proprietary OS to a (mostly) software freedom respecting OS is good. A shame that video games are proprietary.

    So, ironically, part of the reason I sold my Xbox was that streaming from Xbox to windows didn’t even work properly.

    I don’t see this as a bad thing for people who want it. Steam doesn’t offer something similar to game pass (I wish they did)

    I’m not really sure what game pass is since it appeared so long after I switched to Linux, but I figure that I’ve lived so long without it that it’s not going to matter now.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
