Did you know that it's Friday again? Yeah, it's that day we play some games live on Twitch and talk all kinds of nonsense. You are, as per usual, welcome to join in on the madness as it unfolds during the 2 hour live segment of Linux gaming on our own little Twitch channel!

Bundle Stars has released an awesome bundle, featuring 8 excellent games with Linux support. Time to grab some cheap games.

A few websites are reporting that Steam for Linux has hit 1900 games after only hitting 1800 around nine days ago, this is false.

Order of the Thorne: The King's Challenge is the latest game from Quest for Infamy developer Infamous Quests, and is the first game of a planned anthology series, now available on GOG, Itch.io, Humble Store and Steam.

SNOW is incredibly interesting, mainly as it's our first proper winter sports type game to have on Linux & SteamOS, it's a bit buggy though. It's free, so no big loss right now if it's a bit iffy.

Ars Technica are usually quite interesting, but this latest SteamOS post bugged me a bit. The author tried out a Zotac's SN970 and had an issue with it.

Feral Interactive certainly don’t stop, Company of Heroes 2 has an impressive patch alongside The Western Front Armies expansion release on Linux. This patch also enables Linux to Mac online play.

Vendetta - Curse of Raven's Cry, the re-release of poorly received Raven's Cry has been removed from Steam, and the situation gets weird.

Albion Online is going to be something big when it's fully released, I'm sure of it. This update shows me how much they are listening to the community (within reason) too.

Homefront: The Revolution is a title I am going to love I'm sure, and the more I see of it the happier I am with how the gameplay looks.

It's nice to have some good news. I told you all recently that it looked like Master of Orion was coming to SteamOS & Linux, and now it has been confirmed by Wargaming themselves.

I was really hoping to give Torment: Tides of Numenera a go, but it seems I won't be able to since they have launched without Linux support right now. They aren't sure if it will get a Linux version during Early Access or after the final release.

Well, I'm glad I didn't buy it on a promise. Rocket League developers have confirmed it's going to be another 6 to 8 weeks before the SteamOS & Linux version is ready.

Both The Talos Principle and Serious Sam 3 should be getting updates with the Vulkan API, and Serious Sam 4 will also use it.

A shame when games get delayed, especially games like Mighty No. 9 that a lot of people are hoping turns out good. I would rather they delayed it, and delayed it some more until it's a polished experience.

I love strategy games, so I just had to give the totally weird looking Death by Game Show a go. My PR people sent over a key so I could check it out.

Feral Interactive will be teasing the Linux port of XCOM 2 this Thursday at 6PM GMT, so we can see how it's doing.
