I want to see a comparison between the same game being played on the original OS and on linux.

@unexposedhazard @cm0002 Linux will be obviously slower. Reason is simple, much lesser amount of developer resources are there to optimize it. But that is only one of the sides.

Another side: 20 years ago, bottleneck of the 3D gaming was the cpu/gpu. Now we have 1000 times faster machines. What is the bottleneck? Of course, cpu/gpu. Does not stink here something, uhm?

Im pretty sure the years of the console industry screaming "we are optimizing" were just bullshit tbh. I just want the proof.
