Steam Hardware Survey For June 2014, Linux Is On The Rise
5 Jul 2014 at 3:30 am UTC

Article mentions that the survey didn't go out to everyone so we may have more than 1.20%...that can easily go the other way too. In my experience, Linux users are more passionate about their OS, and while "A survey? No thanks, stop wasting my time." is a common answer, I have no problem imagining more people than myself say "Survey? Hell yeah, Linux users REPRESENT!"

About bundling Linux with hardware, that could ruin some twat's school year. [External Link]

Good to see the arrows pointing upwards. Even a minor percentage shift means a lot of users. If we do a survey, it would be fun to see who used Linux before and recently started gaming, and who played games before and recently switched to Linux for it. In other words, where are the new users coming from?

Metro Redux FPS Games Due At The End Of August
5 Jul 2014 at 2:56 am UTC

Really enjoyed Last Light when I got to play it. Crashed quite a bit though. Can see me buying Redux versions of both if they get their crap together though.

As for the no Mac thing, I'm hoping that won't catch on. I quite enjoy my Mac, and I enjoy games on it. If anything I'd laugh my nuts off if a great game came out for Mac and Linux, but no Windows. Might be a good thing for the developer too, being bought up to make that game an Xbox flagship and boom, you're Bungie.

Trolling Delays Linux Release Of The Stanley Parable
29 Jun 2014 at 9:14 pm UTC

I'm sorry Gran PC. I'm not one of the people spewing this stuff at you, but I am sorry for not writing to let you know I appreciate the effort. The Stanley Parable is one of the funniest games I've tried, and I would love to have it on the OS of my choice, and I feel terrible that that isn't the message you hear.
Please keep up the good work, I'd really love to see a few more endings.
