What have you been playing recently and what do you think about it?

It's been a while since I put a question to the community, so here it is! What are you currently playing and what do you think about it?

I'm still very fond of Ballistic Overkill and recently Insurgency, still a big FPS fan myself and that will never change.

For Ballistic Overkill, it's the simple pleasures here. It's accessible, we never have problems finding a game and the performance is fantastic.

Insurgency is a different matter, as it's difficult, much more realistic and really quite fun to do the co-op mode.

Highly recommend them both.

While I'm here, just to let you know every Monday we will be doing what we decided to call "Ballistic Monday" where we hop on Twitch to livestream Ballistic Overkill and more. Everyone is welcome to join. Keep an eye on our livestream schedule for the info. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

I have a Laptop 5-7 years old with an i5 and an NVIDIA 525M so I cant play any descent games.

(I think I should make a request to Liam to create a list for games that crappy computers can play)

Supper Games for shitty computers! :P

Anyway is ok , actually I am extremely busy these days with work and I dont even play any game on PS4.
Also I have realized that PC > Consoles any time any day. (if only exclusive tittles were not so exclusive :P)

Well happy gaming to all... ;)

Torment: Tides of Numenera, and Gun (Wine).

Quoting: enzThe Witcher 2. I bought it a while ago on a sale because it was dirt-cheap and I had heard that they had resolved the performance issues with their wrapper, but I only recently found the time to play it. So far I like it: good performance, only a few occasional crashes (that might not even be related to Linux), and even if the gameplay is not perfect, the story, graphics and atmosphere are very enjoyable.

You should play the first one too then (Wine). The atmosphere there is even better IMHO.

Night In The Woods.

It resonates a lot with how I feel these days. It's a lot like Undertale.

insurgency - it's really addictive... I don't even like multiplayer games... but this one is something special. I love the maps more than anything.
GRID autosport - not a real simulation but great AI
