The Witcher 2 Improves With A New Round Of Beta
3 Sep 2014 at 9:22 am UTC

With my GTX660 on Debian Wheezy in 1680*1050 and high settings, I had 20 to 30 fps in the first open air scene with beta 2 and get 30 to 40 fps with the current build. I don't know how stable the fps is (according to some comments on Github, it isn't), but this is the first build that might be playable on high settings on my rig!

The Metro Redux FPS Games Will Require OpenGL 4 On Linux

Quoting: CimerydSo what you're saying is that I NEED to order parts and build a desktop PC. Thanks, this will help me when arguing with the wife.

Dunno about yours, but mine wouldn't be more convinced than before if I tell her that I just need to play this certain ego shooter... (That's why I don't ask her in the first place. ;o) )

Jounrney Down has a nice special atmosphere. Have played the first one and bought the second one in said preorder campaign. Judging from the first episode, I can really recommend it.

AMD Working Closely With Khronos Group On Next-gen OpenGL, Gives Mantle Access
15 Aug 2014 at 9:13 am UTC

If OpenGL Next would closely resemble Mantle, AMD would have a headstart in implementing it.
On the other hand, if it's quite close, it might make Mantle obsolete.

Major Steam Client Update Released
15 Aug 2014 at 9:09 am UTC

I've been craving for hiding games (outdated betas sitting ugly in the game library anyone?) and setting multiple categories for games. Now we'd only need to be enabled to actually look for games that are in two categories for searching. Didn't find that. And obviously, when you can set several categories, the category setting ui shouldn't close autommatically anymore when having set the first (which did make sense before).

The Witcher 2 Gains Yet Another Performance Beta
15 Aug 2014 at 5:27 am UTC

With i3570, GTX660, 8 GB and 1680*1050, I got 20(!) to 30 fps on high settings in the first open air scene. Not what I'd actually call playable.

It's good that they're working on it, it's nice to have frequent updates. But they're far from finished. And while we can be happy with games working and being playable at the moment, we will call for the same performance (more is always welcome) as on Windows some day.
