VirtualBox 3.0 Beta Adds Gaming-Level Graphics

[BlueWolf72]

If you're a gamer or heavy graphics user of virtual machines, VirtualBox 3.0 has an early beta out that introduces OpenGL 2.0 and Direct3D support.

If anyone else grabs post thoughts..

Wait. Does this you can emulate Windows games on Linux without the need for WINE?

I've used Virtualbox before and it's an excellent piece of software!

What Psy said...If this is the case then I might switch to Ubuntu for good. Right now I'm running dualboot.

/continues to use Vmware. Virtualbox is good but not great.

If it's anything like VMWare Fusion for the Mac (which supposedly has Open GL and DX9), gaming performance is only suitable games that came out at least 5 years ago. I couldn't even get Civ 4 to work right.
