Quoting: GoLBuzzkillThey are in bed big time with M$, FB, mobile, and you are still buying their "we support linux" crap.

What are you on about? We should not like the progress they make on Linux because they also work on proprietary platforms? Or maybe we should hate them because Linux isn't likely to be their number one priority? Bah. You do the hating, I'm much more interested in gaming.

Quoting: BelarriusWaw... My GTX 960 2GB seems out for this game... Because 2GB is so low no?

A 2GB Nvidia 680 is given as the minimum, so your 960 should be enough to run the game comfortably. I certainly hope so, seeing as I've got a 2GB 960 as well.

Beautiful and ambitious certainly. Hope they have the design chops to shape it into an enjoyable game and not just an interactive art project.

Awesome progress for Unity.

Quoting: BeamboomI'm more and more convinced that Unity is the game engine for the future.

That's not what we want though. We want several competing engines all pushing each other to innovate. Also we probably want specialized engines for different types of projects instead of one that tries to do it all. Also, free and open source engines like godot for free and open source game projects, but that's another discussion.

Quoting: ShmerlMay be it will change once radeonsi will becomes clearly better than closed OpenGL from AMD and Nvidia will notice that Linux gamers are ditching it more and more.

It won't change until Nvidia sees this affecting their business. And that won't happen as long as their enterprise clients and--less importantly--most Linux gamers are willing to use their proprietary blob. Let's hope AMD's efforts bear fruit and Nvidia is forced to notice. This is about corporate inertia, not malice.

I'm not endorsing Nvidia here, by any means. I'm chuffed that AMD is finally getting back into the game so to speak, and I love that the next time I'm in the market for a GPU, I've actually got a choice that isn't so clearly between freedom and performance.

The trailer looks great, still. Reviewers seem to love it as well. Now just a bracing shot of FNA and the owl will be ready to meet the penguin.

Quoting: IncandescentThe triggers have far too much spring pressure, making them uncomfortable to use for any length of time, and the right trigger is now flaking out after only 1 year of serious use.

True, it took several months for the trigger springs to loosen a bit (or my fingers to adjust?) so that I'm not in agony after a longer racing game session. Although I'm so used to them now that a Dual Shock 3's triggers felt too small and loose for comfort when I tried one a while back.

Quoting: IncandescentThe top right bumper's plastic leaf-spring spring snapped (you mystery plastic, perhaps?), making it loose.

It was just a tiny black fragment of plastic rattling inside the controller. I couldn't see any place it could have broken off, hence the mystery.

I bought the F310 for about 20 € when it was on sale at a local supermarket. The quality is what I'd expect for a cheap controller, so I'm not too bothered by it. I wouldn't buy MS hardware even if I had the cash and I've never liked Sony's gamepads since the original PS, so the Steam Controller would be pretty much my only real choice.

Quoting: cxphergmailcomXbox 360 controller is by far the best out of box experience.

The Logitech controllers are pretty much straight up clones with a slightly different design. Don't know about relative quality as I've never tried an Xbox controller, and my F310 is barely working after a couple of years of use (had to fix a broken cable and remove a mystery piece of plastic that was jamming one of the triggers), but at least they're just as compatible.

This looks too good to be true. What's the catch? There must be a catch, right? :)
