but it's not a port! winex just lets you run the original windows
version while booted to linux. All it does is implement (in addition to
all the API calls that wine does) the directx APIs that a lot of games
use. So it really is the same game. The only reason why some games
won't run perfectly on it would be either some unimplemented API they
use, or a slightly different behaviour. But that's what TransGaming is
working on - finding those broken APIs and fixing them.
