Gameplay of Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition on Ubuntu 13.10, with almost maxed out graphics. Initially windowed-mode at 1600x900, then fullscreen mode at 1920x1080 at 5:20 .

In this video I am using Wine 1.7.1-CSMT from PlayOnLinux, and it seems to make the game run really smooth! I tried MK in normal Wine 1.6 before this and it lagged a lot. Things are definitely improving!

You will need to set Wine to Vista, otherwise the game will complain about needing Direct 9.0c and Vista.

To my surprise, the game runs almost as if it's native! Perfectly smooth, movie scenes work great, saves work, no crashes whatsoever thus far. The slow down bug is still there though, but this is NO fault of Wine. The people who ported the game from the consoles are the ones who need to address the issue.

Note that this is the Steam version of Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition.
