This isn't something done by us, but it impressed me so much I felt the need to give this video some credit. Arma 3's performance using Virtual Programming's eON tech is rather amazing.
I really hope they update it to the latest versions, and promote it as an official port. I did a livestream of it and found it to be really quite good myself. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Pertty sweet!
I remember testing out Borderlands 2 on SteamOS (Ubuntu) and WIndows 7 and it ran smoother on Ubuntu by something like 5-10 fps, constantly. Great to se another game running smoother on SteamOS!

I remember when VP released Witcher 2 last year, they've made a lot of progress since then. I like what I'm seeing and if this turns out to be a cost effective way to deliver not-too old Windows games to Linux then I say bring it on. :D

Damn, that is impressive, I'm still intimidated as hell by ARMA 3, but if this becomes official, I may get it.

Great performance. I was always pro-VP as long as the performance is good and now it seems VP performance will not be an issue. I hope they will bring many more games to Linux, games that otherwise would not get a port.
I also hope they will bring Arma 2 as well but I don't think this will happen.

Hey! It's not just the video, this is a channel full of SteamOS vs Windows comparaison just like this one. I hope this one will shut up those people that pretend that Linux ports are doomed to have worst performance than Windows.

Impressive performance. Up to now, virtual programming always seemed like a bit of a hack and a poor alternative to a native port, but if we can consistently see results like this then I'm all for it.
