Looks Like Shadow Of Mordor Won't Support AMD Graphics On Linux At Release

Quoting: wojtek88Developers won't be forced to make games work on Linux distributions
They never were. Even Feral and Aspyr support a very small amount of distributions - if I remember correctly, about 1 of them, maximal 2. You cannot port to Linux if this would force you to support Debian and Arch and Gentoo and LFS.

I prefer a port on par with Windows, but not supporting all hardware/drivers, to a mediocre one.
But of course, in this case that's easily said as an Nvidia user.

You cannot possibly consider this too much for a decent angst!

Modern Linux Classics Return In Humble Indie Bundle: All-Stars

The only problem this bundle might have is that many people will already have several of these games.
World of Goo, Limbo and Antichamber are very, very good games - Antichamber "absorbed" me when I played it.
I wonder if I should buy it for the well acclaimed Braid, but the graphics do not appeal to me.

But, Linuxers, we cannot let the Macies get away with paying more than us!

If it is the same size, I will get it! :D

351mm x 345mm x 98.5mm, I guess that's much for a router.

Additionally to "Europa Universalis IV: Common Sense", they offer "Europa Universalis IV: Common Sense Content Pack" - did they really start to sell DLCs for DLCs?!?

New Linux Gaming Survey For June
1 Jun 2015 at 6:00 pm UTC

Quoting: Segata Sanshiro
Quoting: WorMzyThis month I bought a Savage Lands four-pack.. does that count as one game or four? :o
To be honest, I don't know! That's the problem with these surveys, either I include every possibility and make it super confusing, or keep it simple but have some things that can't be quantified.

Also, would the people receiving the games as a gift count that as a purchase? That's why my general policy is to leave this kind of stuff out and assume that the different subjective things will iron themselves out through averages :)
I'd say everybody getting one of these four should consider it one new game.
