The Steam 2016 Halloween sale has some nice Linux games for cheap

By - | Views: 31,227
If you're a bit low on funds, you might like to know that Steam is doing a 2016 Halloween sale with some nice Linux games on offer.

Here's some choice picks for you:
7 Days to Die - 60% off
System Shock 2 - 75% off
Oxenfree - 75% off (I've been told this is really good, so I just picked up a copy)
Layers of Fear - 50% off
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - 75% off
Mad Max - 50% off
Shadow of Mordor - 50% off
Company of Heroes 2 - 75% off
Black Mesa - 60% (only just came to Linux!)

There's plenty more, but those are some of what I think are the best deals going. Quite amazing that Mad Max is already 50% off and it has only recently come to Linux. Here's a chance for people on the fence to pick the game up cheaper, while still supporting Feral and Linux gaming directly from Steam.

I've been told great things about Oxenfree, so I've personally purchased it and I'm excited to finally give it a go, it's been on my list for ages. I've also picked up Black Mesa now it's on Linux.

What have you picked up? I do love a good sale. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Quoting: GreenIs there a forum/thread somewhere about alternative options for valve to consider? I'm curious what solution people would like to have in place. Probably going to be a hard one if people don't want to increase the window of opportunity to play the game and developers getting payed later.

I'm not aware of any effective channel to Valve in the first place. There's a suggestions forum, but I didn't see any hint of them actually reading it. It seems like they're doing what they want, for good and for bad.

If we had any, I find it hard to come up with a better scheme that the interested parties might be happy with. Of course, Valve could hold back money until a key is actually used (or some expiration date), but developers and publishers would be up in arms against it. They want/need their money quick...

Maybe the money for sells to unknown systems could at least be split according to the known OS shares on Steam. A little improvement, but better than nothing.

PS: It feels like internet is the place where people state their opinos without really listening to other people. I hope I do that better, but you for sure do. Kudos.

Bought Mad Max ... sadly I've issues with the steam controller on the desktop and using in-home streaming (it's just not working / recognized by the game).
It was recognized on the first start though, but failed to be recognized on any further start.

Very sad, that would be a cool game to play from the living room.
