It depend on how old a PC game you want to play..... you arent playing anything made in the last 10 years or better

We still miss the RSX drivers for most distro's... only FreeBSD has a kind of RSX driver but FreeBSD is no standard Linux....

No need Linux for playing PC games on PS3

Im 100% feel sure trying to install and run a psx or dolphin emu or playing pc games on a Linux PowerPC Edition right now is a waste of time unless we have a nice RSX or GPU driver and good Kernel file working harmonicaly just like a well matched couple..! :hello:

Moreover, most of the people have got their own desktop pc's or notebooks or a similar thing which have much more capability to run Linux in a more efficient way than our PS3... :hello:

Result; running linux on PS3 is useless but a feeling of interest maybe curiosity drives us to make it happen just like :hahaha: me..
