Figment, a beautiful and musical action-adventure game is now available on Linux

Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTNow it's only 15,55 € in DE if you buy it as a bundle on Steam - until 1.11.2017.
Now that's strange. The bundle is cheaper than the discounted game alone...

F1 2017 is officially coming to Linux, releasing November 2nd from Feral Interactive

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLI think more request have The Witcher 3 or Skyrim... so in my opinion this "popular demand" is not exactly true.
They never said they could port any game we want.

Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTIt's now on sale in a bundle with two other games, one of these, Back to Bed, is also a Linux puzzle game.
I found Back to Bed rather bad, though. The puzzle is leading someone who's turning right (or was it left?) on every obstacle back to his bed. Yes, AFAIR that's about it.

Quoting: stretch611I have seen this recently on Steam... However I think it is new, IIRC they rarely did this in the past you used to need to decide to re-purchase some content or forgo the bundle.
What did they do with the games you already had? Put them as gifts into your inventory?
Then maybe they changed it when they disabled the possibility of putting gift games into the inventory.

When was the last time you used Wine to play a Windows game? Over six months ago
Should I say "never" if it was over 5 years ago?
I'd say more than a year qualifies as "I never use it".

Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTI didn't even know the strange Steam Controller is that popular.

Xbox 360? Okay, got it, seems like the standard PC controller even though I don't like it and use dual shock instead. But really, Steam Controller? I can't get used to that piece of hardware...
For most games, you can use it without even touching the touch pads (not for twin-stick shooters, obviously). I do like these, though, they gave me a better feeling for the mouse cursor in the first second than I ever had from any laptop touchpad.

Quoting: AnxiousInfusionNot sure. I certainly can get by on a lot less. And I can't be the only one who doesn't completely enjoy dedicating so much space to a monolithic wind tunnel box gaming PC.
How would you be using the free(d) space under your desktop?

Quoting: AnxiousInfusionParticipating in this survey has a ratcheting effect on my choice in hardware. I feel as though I can never migrate to anything less powerful than what I have because it would harm the overall "score" of Linux gamer computer strength.
So, you would downgrade without it? :huh:

Quoting: jgacasJust buy them separately, sale percentage is same (without 20% bundle reduction).
Ah, cool! Is that always the case with Steam bundles?
Somehow takes the bundling away from the bundle, doesn't it? :)

Quoting: jgacasExplorer's Bundle [External Link]contains 3 really good Linux games on sale



Explore and enjoy!
... but you're also paying for three non-Linux games. Is it worth it? Is it even cheaper than buying the Linux games alone?
