Makes me wonder why people vote for some totally mediocre games while DROD still struggles to get to the top 100. Must be the "greenlight bundles". :-(

Anyhow if you didn't vote for DROD games yet - please do. And if you don't know DROD games yet - try them out ASAP! The first one (full version!) is distributed for free at:

disclaimer: I'm not affiliated in any way with the devs, I'm just a long-time fan. ;-)

Quoting: AnonymousAnd there have more time to improve SteamOS, SDL2, GPU drivers, etc.

And finish HL3 & L4D3. ;-)

Personally I don't see the point. What I love about digital distribution of games, music and movies is having my house uncluttered from all these boxes. ;-)

Quoting: wleoncioOh, man, now you guys are making me wish Civ IV came to Linux too so I could try it.

Probably not going to happen, but I wouldn't mind playing Civ IV: Colonization as well. I tried to run it in Wine but failed miserably. For me it would be a tolerable compromise for Steam or devs to provide wine wrappers for games that work perfectly in wine and won't get a port anyway, but I can see the reasons behind not doing that.

Quoting: HamishMy brother still thinks that the original Civilization is the definitive version, although he will accept Civilization II as being acceptable.

What does he think about FreeCiv?

I installed it when then made it free on Desura, unfortunately the physics were terrible and the game was hardly playable. Ugh! was a great game and I actually played it to the end on Amiga. I'd gladly play it again, or a remake, but not like that.

Quoting: BeamboomThis is a iPhone game. I seriously wish Steam should add a filter to their interface where we could just filter out all those mobile phone games being thrown after us as "new releases" these days.

Personally I consider these to be pure pollution.

I couldn't agree less. These games are made for PC and only after that get their phone/tablet version. See their latest game, it's currently only available for Windows and Mac: http://www.artifexmundi.com/page/piraci3/ [External Link]

Besides I played two of them and they are fully featured and enjoyable games, with proper interface, unlike some of the notorious ports of mobile games, like Luxuria Superbia or Finding Teddy.

Maybe if Steam indeed marked such ports (it's been requested for a while now), you wouldn't be tempted to form such unfounded opinions.

Quoting: LinuxboyNightmares From The Deep 3: Davi Jones will also come to Steam (with Linux) in the future.

I really hope all of their games will find their way to Steam and Linux! :-)
