Give linux 2-3 more years and you'll see how much Linux ubuntu will habe surpassed Windows.

@shadow444222 No. Pay attention, young grasshopper. As it is clearly stated, I responded to KoolKluxKlan666's comment, which had nothing to do with this video, but was a statement about how he thinks the sound system in Linux worked. I made my comment because no modern Linux system has the audio troubles he talked about.

@Demoras i belive it is linix mint cause thats what the title says.

@salmiak911 if u run linix on a mac then it should run good but the install is hit and miss for some macs so it could be worth a shot.

@o0ZporK0o well even if i used crysis i would set my pc on fire from the stress of the game but the only real good part of crysis is that its great for benchmarking, nothing more nothing less.personally half life 2 and left 4 dead look somewhat better than that game if u ask me.

[o0ZporK0o]

@shadow444222 I agree that Crysis sucks, but to say that half life 2 looks better, that's just out right lying, or denial

[o0ZporK0o]

@smoke489 it already has dude

[shadow444222]

@o0ZporK0o crysis sucks ass and plus half life 2 looks better than that shit ass game.

[o0ZporK0o]
