is there anything that i can play one here? i know starcraft you can but you have to get some windows 98 blah blah... but what about other games that are also for linux like some old school Age of Empires?

now is there a way to make this full screen? without the risk of messing up something cause when it comes to linux im really good at doing that. i have a 720p HDTV
