Unreal Tournament Has Come A Long Way, New Beautiful Map Included
3 Mar 2015 at 6:34 pm UTC

The crash is actually specific to the r600g driver, and not a problem with Mesa in general. I have tried several of the UE4 demos and UT with i965 (Intel) and it seems to be working fine. Sure, it's a bit slow, but it definitely works.

Hope the problem with r600g isn't too hard to fix, would be interesting if anyone tried it with radeonsi or nouveau.

The Bard's Tale Release For Linux On Steam
14 Oct 2013 at 12:29 pm UTC

Quoting: Quote from ApopasSo I suppose the pack contains all four games?
Pretty interesting.
Yep, all included.

The game was also gifted to all backers of Wasteland 2 (or was it Torment?) so don't buy it if you already have a Steam code.

Egosoft plans new Linux ports for X3

Yep, let's hope they plan on bringing back X2 and port their new titles as well.

(Also yay for me for finally finding news to post! :D )

Steam big picture from login!
15 Nov 2012 at 5:43 pm UTC

I guess I fail to see why creating a couple of crappy debian packages for a couple of lines of shell script just to launch the steam executable with a special switch is something to cheer about, or why it needs a github page.

Then again, the omgbuntu page has loads of comments, so I guess it's just me be old and outdated.

Steam's Linux list is growing

I wonder how hard one would have to twist the arms of id Software for them to get on that list? (And I'm not even thinking about Rage...)

Cold War (LGP) released on Desura DRM Free

Come to think of it, there was some talk years ago in the LGP blog about possibly also shipping Windows binaries for the games. They were apparently looking into it, wonder why nothing happened...

Cold War (LGP) released on Desura DRM Free

Quoting: "liamdawe, post: 5714, member: 1"Looks like LGP is really back on track, they just need to sort out their delivery system as they have an apparent back log to get through and it should be smoother sailing for them!
Don't know about that, they just lost the license to sell X2 and X3, two of the more interesting titles. In terms of releasing new games they seem to be moving backwards...

Arakion RPG coming to Linux
3 Oct 2012 at 5:23 pm UTC

Oh, right, I totally forgot about Shadowrun! Two of them actually, a single player game and an MMORPG, both with Linux support.

It seems like I need to take a sabbatical next year to have any chance to play all of these...

Arakion RPG coming to Linux
2 Oct 2012 at 6:06 pm UTC

Quoting: "Anon, post: 5618"But this might be the best RPG on Linux for some time, at least until Grimrock also gets released. Or some exciting new developments happen soon.
Well, there's Wasteland 2 and Project Eternity, but I admit that this one also seems promising.
