[SOLVED] Gaming on Wine
N4RPS:
Hello!
The best way to describe PlayOnLinux is that it is a GUI 'front end' for WINE. It is supposed to make Windows apps and games that it supports easier to install.
I've tried it out and played with it for a while. I wasn't impressed by it, so I deleted it. As always, YMMV...

If that program isn't graphically intensive, it would run fine under VirtualBox. Wine can sometimes be a pain to diagnose, but when it works, it is great!
