XCOM: Enemy Unknown Looks Like It's In Testing For Linux Right Now
6 May 2014 at 8:35 pm UTC

Also worth noting that OpenXcom is fast approaching v1.0: http://openxcom.org/

This is shaping up to be the year of tactical alien-warfare simulators.

Gigabyte's AMD Mini Gaming PC Gets A Downvote For Poor Linux Support
29 April 2014 at 7:47 pm UTC

Isn't the Arse Technica article just another poorly veiled attempt to scare as many people away from Linux as possible? In their opinion, gaming on Linux is a stupid idea and will never take off, so nobody should even consider it and should just use Windows instead. :|

ROCCAT Ryos MK Glow Review
27 April 2014 at 3:42 pm UTC

Quoting: Xpanderahh i get it what you mean... moving keys/buttons physicaly?

Yeah, some keyboard manufacturers lock down the "home" keys (F & J) by using a different key slot, so I usually end up physically modifying those keys, as well as the keys that will be in their place (U & H). It's a lot of effort and makes me wary of changing keyboards unless absolutely necessary.

I love glowy keyboards so I'll probably pick up this model (or similar) when this Logitech G110 finally gives up the ghost.

Thanks for confirming. :)

ROCCAT Ryos MK Glow Review
27 April 2014 at 3:10 pm UTC

Can you confirm whether the keys are interchangable? I.e. could I move them about into a different layout (Dvorak)? I emailed Roccat about it, who said this is the case (although the model I was enquiring about had a curved surface, so the keys weren't a standard height), but it'd be nice to hear it first hand from an owner.

System Shock 2 FPS Now Available On Linux
1 April 2014 at 7:22 pm UTC

I wonder if this isn't an April Fools joke as well. How long does it take to make a wine port? 10 minutes, including the time it takes to eat the pizza?

I'm not complaining, I just find it odd that they took half a year.

Also, didn't the SS2 sources get leaked recently, or was that just a rumour?

Interview With Stefan Achatz Developer Of ROCCAT Gaming Hardware Drivers For Linux
31 March 2014 at 9:37 pm UTC

This article has made me consider getting a Ryos MK Pro to replace my Logitech G110. I wonder if they would make one with a dvorak-uk keyboard layout, or if the keys can be easily swapped around..

Have Mouse Problems In Unity3D Games On Linux? See Here For Fixes

I use openbox, but I still get mouse jumps in Rust. :c

Moebius: Empire Rising Adventure Game Will Not Support Linux From Day 1
30 March 2014 at 1:49 pm UTC

I do wish people would stop saying ~PC~ when they actually mean ~Windows~.

Hey devs, I'm using a ~PC~, it just has ~Linux~ on it.

*grumble grumble*

Facebook Buys Oculus VR, The Internet Freaks Out
26 March 2014 at 2:02 pm UTC

I don't get the excitement or need for VR in the first place.

Facebook taking over Oculus is no big loss as far as I'm concerned.

Earth 2140 Gold Edition RTS Game Linux Version Released
24 March 2014 at 6:30 pm UTC

The Steam version still says Mac and Windows support only. I wonder if they're not releasing it on Steam for some reason. :(
