    Meanwhile back in 2004, Epic released Unreal Tournament 2004, with a dedicated Linux installer on the first disc.

      Correct me if I’m wrong but it was hidden on the last disk! (And the box did not mention it in any way)

      Good times.

        I conveniently had my UT04 retail box sitting on the shelf next to me. I can confirm there’s a little penguin on the back of package, and under OS requirements they list Linux with an asterisk explaining it’s not supported by Atari (publisher).

        There is nothing else in the manual indicating how to use the Linux version, which disk to use, or any additional information that I can find.

        Edit: geez I miss game manuals sometimes. All the game mechanics are so nicely explained, and it has instructions to setup modding tools!
