From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Previous Baldur's Gate games came out on old ass consoles, you can play it emulated without a hitch. I know I definitely played BG2 on Dolphin

That's not Baldurs Gate, it's Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance which is a completely different game that was on consoles. It was an Action RPG as opposed to an RPG.

But it was also great fun. Especially with a friend.

You can play Baldur's Gate on all sorts of machines using GemRB. Not the enhanced version though.
