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.

For people like me who just adore and love the forza horizon series, it will be the only way to play without windows or repurchasing newer titles on steam. It's a clear plus in my book. Fuck microslop tho.
or, you can just pirate and never give money to the antichrist
Tried. Pirating whilst playing online is quite the tricky thing to do without getting banned. :D
Yikes. I don't play many online games so I am not very knowledgeable on the situation over there. I just used online-fix a few times and it was so horrible I had to buy my second piece of paid software.
