Vanguard Princess is a really good VS fighting game, and I'm not saying that because of the fair amount of fan-service that's provided by the game (even if I could, but that's another matter :p)
More particularly, the animation is top-notch, and the game is often said to have been developed by a former Street Fighter III developer (the best episode to date). Whether this is true or not, the game is really well crafted with some interesting gameplay ideas, and the hitting priorities and overall feeling is really pro-quality.
The game is essentially 1 vs 1, but it uses a second character based on the same model as strikers that can be found in Marvel vs Capcom or King of Fighters '99.
Definitely recommended, will buy when it's out.

AMD RX 480 released, AMD will possibly open up Radeon Software

On another hand a Phoronix article [External Link] is out about power consumption of the card and it reports an average of 144W, which is below the 150W TDP and way below the 165W reported in the different links around the web...

Quoting: SXXYeah sure, but it seems ASUS GTX 960 has had the same problem whereas the reference model didn't. Looks like we'll need to be careful about this anyway.Quoting: omer666This sure doesn't look good. Too bad it happens with the first really powerful open source friendly card...Nobody should ever buy reference cards no matter if it's Nvidia or AMD. They usually have some kind of issues.

Quoting: DePingusI had high hopes for these cards, but in light of this impending debacle, I'm going to wait...This sure doesn't look good. Too bad it happens with the first really powerful open source friendly card...

tldr;
These cards are drawing way more power from the PCIe slot than they are supposed to.

Wow that looks pretty interesting indeed. We need to have some more feedback on compatibility/stability though. But as of now, it's the most interesting option for my next upgrade.
Company of Heroes 2 updated for Linux, adds support for the War Spoils system and fixes other bits

Quoting: liamdaweAbsolutely not. We even tried connecting through my mobile connection, to no avail. Me and the devs just don't know where it comes from. Even disabling all firewalls and SELinux won't change a thing. I'm more and more thinking it's Relic's servers' fault.Quoting: omer666I still get the "Can't connect to Relic servers" error. I've been reporting this bug for two versions now and we can't find a solution. The bug seems to exist on Windows too.Behind a VPN by any chance?

Street Fighter V has passed the initial Linux & SteamOS release window

Either way, Street Fighter V is still pretty much incomplete to this day. Even if it had been ported this spring, I would not spend 50 bucks on this game in its current state. It is sad that Capcom went for this kind of half baked release.
On another hand, there is an SNK Humble Bundle right now, so you can have some real VS fighting fix playing Mark of the Wolf (still the best fighting game to this day).
