The screenshots look beautiful, but it seems that hardware tesslation isn't working. Here's a video showing what that is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkKtY2G3FbU |

It says in the articleQuoting:The non-tessellated version of Unigine Heaven will work on the NVIDIA side, while it will not be until they officially release the GeForce GT 400 "Fermi" series that there will be any tessellation support. Out of curiosity, because with kids it's kind of tough to do gaming, why is there a difference between what can be done on Linux and Windows, as implied by the title. |

I missed that, thanks. With regards to the title, your remark is exactly why the title is like that. There is no difference between the capabilities of Windows and Linux, yet most Linux games look far crappier than most Windows games. |

Most big-name developers though, build their games using loads of proprietary tech that only works on certain platforms. Unfortunate since those things cost them money, and free-er alternatives do exist to a lot of the stuff that also happen to be loads more cross-platform developable. |
