I was buying the humble bundle back than in... spring? hoping for Giana Sisters among others. I already had given up hope when I saw the developers resonding in this very thread. I don'T care too much if it's decembre or february when it works good then.

How Steam Computes Linux Sales

Now that's interesting!

About the sales counting for Linux, it seems you can "heal" a Windows buy by playing on Linux - wouldn't recommend that, though.

Yes.

Speculation: BioShock Infinite Might Be an eON port

Quoting: sevI never had issues with Witcher2 (I also have Nvidia, and am using the Nvidia drivers rather than nouveau). So if Bioshock:Infinite is eON, I have no problem with this. If it's easy to port games with eON, bring them ALL on. Seriously, I don't see a downside here.
I did have issues with the performance of The Witcher 2, and I'm using nvidia closed source drivers as well.

Quoting: nspacestdWow this is awesome! One of my favourite games ever! Too bad I've already finished it on Windows...

But I'll definitely play it again when it comes out for Linux.
I did not yet play the DLCs, so I'd love to buy those for Linux.

WOW.

If you don't yet own it, get it and play it when it has got the penguin.

It is GREAT.

Porting Civilization: Beyond Earth, Dev Update 6 From Aspyr Media (UPDATED)
4 Dec 2014 at 10:30 am UTC

Quoting: BeamboomIf I understand correctly these are issues they are having with ATI and Intel across all platforms, not just Linux. So it seems we should not be too quick to jump on the conclusion that the Linux drivers suck. At least not solely.
In their blog, it's under the heading "Linux Status".

GOG & Steam Both Hit Milestones For Linux Games

Quoting: LinasWhen this first started, I remember eagerly waiting for news on any new Linux release. Now I am actually losing track of things. Just a few months ago it was 600, and now it is 800. I have to admit that I have a very faint idea of what these 200 are... I guess this is a good thing, right?
I keep hearing from Windows ... - let's call 'em users - in Linux threads that I would restrict myself artificially using Linux. Yeah, I do. Restricting myself to only 800 games which I cannot keep track of either, and more games on my stack that I actually have time to play. Makes my cry all night...!

I'm playing Wasteland 2 at the moment, over 40 hours already and many more to come, with Borderland 2 and The Witcher 2 (get the beta, it runs much better!) and Risk of Rain and Penumbra and The Fall and Nihilumbra and others waiting...
