It's question time today here on GOL, so sit down and come have a chat. Today I ask a very simple question: what game would literally blow your mind if it came to Linux & SteamOS?
I've asked myself this very same question and while it looks like a simple question, the truth is that it's actually quite difficult to narrow it down.
There's a fair amount of great games we don't have and that's probably a heavy understatement. There's a good 10-20 games I badly want on Linux and narrowing them down was a bit of a task.
I think my all time wish right now would be: Fallout New Vegas.
A game I actually own, as it's one of the left-overs from back when I was dual-booting. I can't bring myself to load up Windows to play it. My Windows hard drive doesn't even fit in my PC case, so it becomes a nuisance to actually load Windows any way now.
Why Fallout New Vegas? I've been a Fallout fan since a young age and I think I've actually played all of them now. I love the world, the style of it and the gameplay is engrossing as hell. It was my favourite of the series by far.

Do you all wanna know what I'd find REALLY mindblowing? Not if Rockstar released GTA V on GNU/Linux, but if they saw what the guys who are working on OpenRW (free/libre, cross-platform rewrite of the engine that powers III, Vice City, and San Andreas) were doing, decided that they should get involved, added funding to the project, and started heavily endorsing developers to work on the games, getting them to add patches, make the games look good on high resolutions, include a native multiplayer client, and even start porting their older games to various platforms (BSD, GNU/Linux, maybe AmigaOS!). That would never happen AND that's why it'd completely blow my mind.
Also: I'm amazed by how many responses this article has attained! Woo!

Clearly tells that while IMHO, Linux gaming is in a good state, we're still missing stuff.

In my Windows days, I really enjoyed Just Cause 2, so while I haven't looked into whether Just Cause 3 was as good or better, I'd love to see JC3 on Linux!
