I was annoyed when humble bundle handed out steam keys for Duke Nukem 3D And Shadow Warrior instead the usual DRM-free downloads, as I had no idea what it was and was annoyed that I had to create an account, but eventually I did. And then I found out it was a huge shop with a lot of games... and many of them had Linux versions... and they had just released Superfrog HD... and Team17 was still alive... and a lot more of wtfisevenhappening moments that day. Of course I bought Superfrog right away and played it to the end, and fell in love with Steam. So that'd be my fav.

Nah, making promises is super easy. The hard part is still ahead.

Ah, I thought they did a remake of this APB [External Link] (yes, I know there's GTA :tongue:).

Quoting: Mountain ManThat is one of the ironies of media piracy. Pirates are the scourge of the industry, but in many cases, they are the only source for games, movies, television shows, and music that are no longer commercially available.

Piracy might have killed Amiga gaming, but guess who is still keeping and making available even the most obscure titles even today? Games that would have been unplayable without cracked code protections and even unavailable because the original floppies are long dead and they had physical copy protections, so nobody but talented crackers would have been able to rip them. I haven't downloaded any pirated games for over two decades, but very recently I read a post by an indie dev who said they had just two copies of their game purchased on steam, and one of the buyers put it up on piratebay or torrent, or some such. Yup, they're still here. :whistle:

I played through Doom, Doom2, Master levels, TNT, Plutonia and nerve.wad earlies this year, so it was a really bad timing on their part. :P Might try later to see if my saves from gzdoom are able to trigger the achievements, but for now I'll just play Legacy of Rust in gzdoom as well.

Quoting: pbSo I tried to play it in 2019 and I couldn't finish the tutorial, because the slipstream mechanics didn't work, on Linux anyway. I wonder if they fixed it. :tongue:

Not sure what your problem was, but I completed the game in 2019 without issue. Was one of my favourite games.

Maybe it was a pebkac. :whistle:
