Spore, the multi-genre “massively single-player online game” by Maxis was succesfully tested on Linux trough WINE. The actual video after the jump.
Both the PC and Mac versions of the game will feature the full experience of cell through to space with editors for designing creatures, buildings, and vehicles. Spore for the Mac will be made possible through TransGaming’s Cider Portability Engine, with experience gained from the past EA Mac titles.
Also, a side affect of the Cider port, its cousin project WINE has all the benefits. That also brings up the question why didn’t Maxis go and release the title under Linux.
