Yeah. And a big Myth fan before that. Even the PowerOfSeven soundtrack
rocks!! too bad Bungie is now a part of the Evil Borg Collective. I'll
miss 'em more than I miss Looking Glass.
Axly, Oni is cross-platform (PC and Mac, and soon PS2). Maybe it will work
thru WINE under emulation... hm... (it's OpenGL after all) and since it's
playable on a K6-500 with the onboard Trident Blade3d video card, it
doesn't require too much in the way of resources.
Will report on this soonest. :)

Yeah. I wish Loki would sell locally or have a local distributor. Right
now (I admit it! I pirated my version of Unreal Tournament for Linux!)
there's no choice but to pirate. Since legit games come in at around P1500
or so this is one case where I *can* legitimately support Loki (to which
we own a LOT, not just games: OpenAL, SDL, and LokiTV, to name three).
Gods know I've "supported" 3dfx even though it was more expensive..
