ReactOS (FOSS "Windows") achieves 3D-accelerated Half-Life on real hardware

ReactOS "Open-Source Windows" Reaches The Milestone Of Being Able To Run Half-Life ReactOS, the open-source operating system working for binary compatibility with Microsoft Windows computer programs and drivers, has reached the milestone of being able to enjoy the classic game Half-Life running on this open-source platform. ReactOS has been in development for 28 years now and today its developers are noting on X the ability to run the Windows version of Half-Life. Some years ago were reports of the Half-Life game at least initializing under ReactOS while given today's X coverage, it seems to be the first time reported of the game successfully running on ReactOS and handling it in-game. Granted, these days you can run Half-Life on Linux and it works well on other platforms via Wine, it's fun seeing Half-Life now running on ReactOS at it continues persevering in its quest of Windows binary compatibility. ReactOS user "Zombiedeth" got Half-Life running on a Dell OptiPlex system with a Core i5 2400 Sandy Bridge processor and NVIDIA GeForce 8400GS graphics. Details on X for those interested.
