Counter Strike Global Offensive Prepares For A Linux Release

Quoting: loggfreak
Quoting: MetallinatusYes! I've been waiting long for this one too!
After that L4D will be the only Valve game to not offer a Linux version yet :D
but it doesn't really matter that it doesn't have a linux version since L4D2 is basically an extended version of L4D1
also you forgot about alien swarm, that game also doesn't have a linux version
I definitely want a pot for L4D1, it use less resources than its secuel (and my gpu driver works worst in linux, so...), and its great, it has well defined which is the first map and the last map, in l4d2 that is a mess.
Alien swarm looks like a game than valve don't care about, so its difficult to see a port of it.
............

Related to the CSGO update, if you go to the forums a lot of people are having trouble with the update, I guess than those "systems" updated for the linux version are causing trouble. of course, that will be fixed soon.

Unfortunately since I already have it on Steam and aren't loaded, I think I'll pass on supporting GOG on this one.
If you have the Steam version already, GOG offers you the game for free: https://secure.gog.com/witcher/backup [External Link]
Thnx...unfornately Witcher 1 doesnt show any key in Steam only Wt2.
For the witcher 1 you will see the key if you go to the Steam for Windows. Try with wine.

It works fine.
No, sadly, it doesnt, based on the steam forums I can say I am not the only one.

Trine Enchanted Edition May Have A Linux Beta

Quoting: edo"both versions are available and can be selected from the game launcher"

That will only applies to the windows version, the linux version will be just the enchanted edition.
Are there any gameplay caveats for the enchanted edition in comparison to the original one? If not then it's no big deal I guess.
I would prefer to have the original trine available in steam linux too, due to trine 2 runs very slow even on windows, so on linux it will be unplayable (I have to use the r600 driver).
btw, the humble-bundle trine version does not work either.
