Saints Row: Gat Out Of Hell Looks Like It Will Also Come To Linux

Great News.

Liam if my information is correct, the first part never was on the Personal Computer (Windows Distributions) published.

It could be one of those, or it could be an in-house port. If they port their engine to Linux, porting each game would just be a formality (not saying it would be quick an easy, of course).

...
I think, that is a In-House Port. All Deep Silver Titles are In-House Ports.

If you like 20 years old graphics, then yes.
For me is this game and other "Pixel" games a no-go.

If i want Retro feeling, i turn on my uae.

2) Hope there will be ported

RollerCoaster Tycoon World
Rollecoaster Tycoon World is going to be ported IIRC :-)
Yes.

Project Cars don't get a port.
Maybe in 1-2 years, but now not.

Read the forum on steam gamehub and the Project Cars Forum. The next Dev's how lie to his Kickstarters supporters about a Linux port.

You do not understand. It does not matter whether 6,200,000 or 125,000,000.

Important in such surveys is to participate and if not all Linux users the survey participate or be able to participate, the poll is worthless!

And yet because you do not understand how these and other surveys work. Sad.

But that's what the developers can not, always rely on these statistics.

And again: we talk about LINUX gamer not STEAM gamer

Apply a statistics of a download platform (here it was Steam) on all Linux gamers, as it made the Frozenbite type, is still ludicrous.

And no poisond, the 1,34 staying in your Link and you sayed it was only 1,1%. And now you will piss me on? That's your link and you did not read it correctly and post here your 1,1 %.

I wronte only the real stat and i never sayed thats the number was from 2015.
Please befor you post links and nubers from your links. Read your sites correctly first.

I'm out now.

Market share by category
Desktop, laptop, netbook Dec 2014 1.34% (Ubuntu, etc.)
Net Applications say it's 1.34%.

And again: the Steam HWsurvey is wrrong and many have it also confirmed here.
So maybe only 50% or more of the all desktopusers (Linux, Mac, Windows) are gamer.

Thus, your statement is false as false.
And you are doing the same mistake.
Maybe a higher percentage of desktop users *on Windows* are gamers and a lower one on Linux?
Hm, this would maybe even lead to lower than 1%.

Yes, we cannot "proof" it's 1%. Maybe it's more - a bit. But irrelevantly more.
Did you understand how a survey works?

No.

Ok only for you:

Steam have actual ca. 6.200.000 users.

So steam aks now the 6.200.00 users in the HWsurvey.
Now all Windows clients get this poll but not all Linuxuser.

In such a survey, 100% are those who also participate in it and not the total 6,200,000 users.
And that is precisely the reason why this survey says nothing.

And we talk here from all Linux gamer, not Steam only gamer.

Quoting: poisond
Quoting: BdMdesigNAs you still get to the 1%?
I and others have written often enough, that's are the 1% a fairy tale number is.

Even if you repeat the 1% here, a scattered lie is not true.
Where's the data to back up your silly claim? I don't think your hearsay is statistically significant.
According to web client usage [External Link] Linux has a market share of 27.2%, of which only 1.1% are GNU/Linux. So the 0.9% Linux users for Steam seem quite plausible.

I got the steam survey recently BTW, maybe I'm the +0.07% *snicker*
And you are wrong. Loool.

Did you read the "Statistics" right? No you did not.

Market share by category
Desktop, laptop, netbook Dec 2014 1.34% (Ubuntu, etc.)
