Only any good Halo game maybe would make me to buy games from there, and since Halo reach 2 is on the way I might take the bait if its cheap enough.
But still, thanks to this initiative is than we are finally seeing their exclusive games coming to pc, crippled by the xbox limitations (like lack of .exes to play with and to mod, as happen on xbox and mobile) but its on pc anyway, and of course they wont release it on steam, just like EA and blizzard does with their games.

And related to Quantum Break, that game was supposed to be an xbox exclusivity, so it wasn't going to come to windows at all, not at least until they decided to make it available on the windows store as well. Microsoft and Sony and Nintendo has been known for making exclusive games for their consoles, but at least microsoft is the only one trying to support windows too, I cant see this as a bad thing, remembering than they could just make their games available only on xbox one and not supporting windows at all.

Quoting: minjSpeaking of controllers... I still need to replace the xpad driver in linux44 with one from steamos to get my xbox360 wired controller running. I remember seeing some talk of those improvements reaching the mainline kernel long ago. What gives?

Or is it my system only?
I have a similar problems too with my xbox 360 controller, which doesnt work at all on many games (even sdl2 games) and on some others it works properly, but a cheap ps3-like controller works properly on all of them. In my case the steamos-xpad didn't change anything.

Quoting: GuestIt's still early access, as long as the intended features are working when I buy it after full release, I'm not bothered.
This guy understand it, early access is early access, its anoying than many people gets mad because they expect their early-access game to works as a finished product.
Anyway, back to the topic, those devs are great, they look like they care for mac/linux users if they are wiling to spend their own money on this project.

I hope than they will recover from that situation, since they took the time and effort to port all their games to linux, even the older ones than were released many years ago. Even on gog their games has the tux icon, thats great.
