There is something called dual boot.
Or use a VM (for Linux).

Hi

You don't want to switch to Linux because of a game?! 0.o

Note: the aim of this post is to express my shock (BECAUSE I AM), the owner of this thread is not obligated to take action. *joke*

Thanks (as in "thank YOU, I am really Shocked!" :Slant

i would never switch to linux for gaming. the game is the girlfriends. she plays almost every couple days, i do more with the computer then she would ever think of lol. I just wanted to know if i did switch for me, would she still be able to play? if that makes any sence lol

You have options here:
- As Deque said: use VM (VMWare/VirtualBox), on Linux or if you want to simplify things, install host Linux in Windows
- Multi-booting (Dual OS): this is what I am using + I am hosting XP on Linux (lol? idk!)

Are you Russion by the way?

Peace

It *may* run under wine or playonlinux but there is no guarantee and could be a pain to get running properly but there is no official Linux port nor will there be
