Thanks @Cheeseness, no rush but if you get a chance i'd love to know if it works flawlessly. I will get this title, just a question of when....and if I can play it on the couch that might accelerate the 'when' :)

To me this communication from the devs suggests they are knee deep in their current project, and can't begin to think of anything else. Releasing a game is a very stressful, emotional and time-consuming affair. I say revisit them after Raven's Cry has been released...

This looks fantastic...I never thought I would get a chance to try this game, but there you go.
Steam says it has full controller support, any idea how this fares?

This looks like a very interesting game, will likely pick it up when it releases.

Quoting: GuestOf course. It's not about free or open source, it's about maintaining control of the IP rights.Quoting: subIf the game is free, unlicensed, open source, non copyright and not-for-profit, could Nintendo actually stop them?Quoting: CybaCowboyAnd Nintendo's lawyers will descend in 3, 2, 1...Indeed, no way Nintendo will let them make this remake.

GOL Cast: Surviving The Zombie Apocalypse In Project Zomboid

Yeah it's an amazing game, it came from pretty rough beginnings (I picked it up before it came to Steam), but they've done some amazing work....and it truly captures the essence of a zombie apocalypse far better than any game I know. The UI is definitely clunky, but it works in a fashion. I need to revisit it, looks like they've made loads of changes since I last played it.

Windows Games On Linux, WINE & PlayOnLinux

I found PlayOnLinux to be super helpful, even though I still needed to do some tinkering. I much prefer it over Vanilla Wine for anything complex, particularly if you start making changes to Wine, it's great to sandbox it.
To be honest, years ago I used to think Wine was a joke...such an ambitious task that would never go anywhere. These days I'm really impressed how far they've come. Wine may well in the future be the ONLY way to run old Windows apps on new hardware...it will become this amazing archiving tool.
I also used to think that Wine (no pun intended) watered down the purity of Linux by running evil MS stuff. However, I've changed my opinion on that too...Wine is like this boa constrictor, squeezing the life out of native DX9 apps and rendering Windows useless. I mean WHY would you run Windows, when you can run Linux...AND run Windows apps as well?? The Borg wants you to assimilate....
