Just got my Defcon soundtrack CD, today, along with Darwinia and Uplink. The CD is very nice... great box/disc art, and nice music of course. I only have two gripes about it: ⋅ Instead of three big tracks, a dozen of smaller tracks without the standard two-second pause would have been nice...

Defcon running on Linux with WINE

(no, NeoThermic, there wasn't drinking involved :) ) Hello everybody, As soon as I could get my package and key from the IV site, I tried to run Defcon on Linux with WINE . It works quite well. In fact, it works so well that I haven't run it on win32 yet. My configuration: ⋅ AMD Athlon XP ...

You must have noticed that I am from Bordeaux :D
I never thought of running Wine while running on wine myself... but now that you suggest it...

This will make the end of the world really painless!

It has been said that Linux binaries will be a free download for owners of the Windows version.
I am a Linux user, and pre-ordered the game. In a few hours, I will be able to tell you how it runs on Wine. Watch out...

Found another one. The main theme from Patriot Games (Harrison Ford, Samuel L. Jackson, Sean Bean - from the Tom Clancy novel), composed by James Horner. Quite eerie, with beautiful irish (I think) singing. A perfect fit, in my opinion. ... It's probably no coïncidence that I'm suggesting music from...

I'm disappoint. I was hoping for flashes and bangs but all I got coloured circles. :( Introversion should really make promotional Defcon T-shirts. After reading your comment, I'm thinking of something along the lines of " I attended nuclear apocalypse, and all I got was this lousy T-shirt &quo...

Heh. I'm sure NOBODY wants to nuke Bordeaux, as it would greatly affect the beverage comfort factor of the survivors :) I would even suggest that France be completely removed from potential targets, in order to save the whole variety of wines and cheeses. I honestly cannot consider survival without ...

I own a CD of the original soundtrack from The Hunt For Red October - I think that will be put to good use... Great performance of russian choirs, by the way. The CD is sadly short (42 min) but Basil Poledouris is a great composer ( Robocop, Starship Troopers ...). I would recommend it to anybody th...

Is this the international thread for nuclear threats? I've got one from France :D Dans dix ans, nous aurons de quoi tuer 80 millions de Russes. Eh bien je crois qu'on n'attaque pas volontiers des gens qui ont de quoi tuer 80 millions de Russes, même si on a soi-même de quoi tuer 800 millions de Fran...

Thank you very much for this clarification, MadSeven! I actually learned something today... I wasn't aware of this type of legislation in the Netherlands. Here in France, diffusion is illegal; however, we have the "private copy" concept, which says that you can make a copy for personal use...
