Where is the Linux Version of DoomIII BFG? I have bought the DVD Version in a store nearby and played it on a windows PC, now i want to install it in STEAM on Linux.

I'm sure its just a matter of time before a source port comes along that runs in linux.

Meanwhile classic doom and doom2 will run in linux. Search the DVD for "doom.wad" and "doom2.wad". With these files you can get a Doom source port such as Odamex or ZDoom and run them.

Regular doom 3 will work on linux just fine.it was a real tossup for me to decide wheter to buy bfg or vanilla. Here one link that should get you going for the original doom 3;

Hi,
I talked Bethesda of the problem that Doom 1,2,3 and quake that have official Linux versions since a long time ago aren't available on steam for Linux. An employee answered me and said he has talked about it to his manager, but I'd better contact Steam also. Ps : Quake 4 also Mac support but not on Steam.
If we want a Linux support for those games that already has one (but not on Steam) everybody should write to Bethesda and Steam support. Here is the Bethesda mail : "ESO English Support" <[e-mail]>
