BlazeRush Is A Fantastic Combat Racer On Linux, It’s Actually Hilarious

Single player can be a bit hard at times, but I had a blast playing this with a friend.

It is very nice as a party game because it levels the playing field for both experienced players and beginners. At times I would totally own my buddy thinking I am invincible, just so that moments later he would shoot a homing missile right up my shiny metal ass launching me right off the track. Our favorite mode was Rocket Party where you would only get explosive stuff. That is hilarious.

My only complaint is the lack of maps, so it eventually becomes repetitive.

Quoting: aristoriasit is really sad to see the linux world completely focus on nvidia/intel.
We already have an intel monopoly and the same will happen with nvidia.
Everybody has some kind of responsibility, especially reporters - free or not.
Why? Free enterprise! Just saying ...
AMD brought this on themselves. I used to be an AMD user, both CPU and GPU. But with every release fglrx driver was getting worse and worse. Crashing, not being able to change screen brightness. Then they dropped the card from the driver altogether while the open source driver had no 3D support yet. That was the last straw -- my next machine was Intel / NVIDIA.

Quoting: aristoriasAnd why the heck does anybody want average joe using this OS? ...
Because in the end it will benefit everybody in many ways. Because average Joes are our friends and family.

I did not choose Linux as my OS because only "l33t hackers" use it, but because I like how it works. If one day Linux becomes the most used OS, I am fine with that.

New Linux Gaming Survey For August

I chose "laptop" as my gaming device, which is technically true. Although when I game, I usually connect it to the TV and play from the sofa. So it is more of a "sofa laptop."

I sure hope there is an option to mute the announcer. For some reason I find him very annoying. At the same time it feels good being able to complain about something not Linux related in a soon to be Linux game. :)
