I did what I often do and gave the game a test run using wine to see how well it works or doesn't.
The game installs, loads, and appears to work quite well. It was a very brief test so mileage may vary. That's the good part, the bad part is the increasingly obnoxious xinput barrier that keeps perfectly functional games from being playable if they rely upon the xbox 360 controller is quite present. So controller support is more or less off the table. That particular issue doesn't seem to have any serious hope of being addressed anytime soon.
Keyboard does seem to work as long as you don't have a controller plugged in. Not that this is the sort of game one would want to play via keyboard.
I was using wine 1.7.something I believe.
