Quoting: liamdawe
Quoting: rambo1462Why no 32-bit? It seems now that no new Linux games have a 32-bit port, like rocket league for example.
Here's a good example: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/users/statistics see how many people tell us they use 32bit.
Those 2 people are going to be disappointed.

Oh right-this is that Mario party game I was wanting before wiping out my wish list.

Quoting: noinformationhereI was really glad to see that I could use the Civ V bundle to complete my copy without having to re-buy anything. Nice touch, so I now have the last of the DLC.

For anyone who remotely likes 1st person shooters, Bioshock Infinite was a masterpiece. While VP did the linux port, it ran very smoothly on my humble rig (GTX 750 non-Ti). Whatever they are doing for their ports is working well, at least for me with an older Nvidia card...
Civ V without DLC is totally polish less. With DLC it feels complete.

I second BioShock Infinite as a masterpiece. I thought for years it wouldn't be my thing until I got it and realized how awesome it is.

Hailing from California, things seem back to normal - now I can obsessively check GOL along with pacman -Syu all day long as is my custom XD.

Africans culture is fascinating, it's nice to be united under a common cause with friends and people all over our one world :)

I wish they would require a minimum play time in order to leave a review - or even esteem reviewers who have completed 50% or 100% of the game.

Rocket League updated for SteamOS & Linux, AA now works, FPS no longer locked to 60

So what's the general consensus?

A lot of people have been riled up about the incredible delay of this coming to SteamOS - and some of us believed it would not happen.

Is the Linux community willing to overlook the rough ride and enjoy a well designed, fun and addictive game?

In most cases I will salve my frustrations when developers change their attitude and or deliver, in this case the vexation is alleviated because OP delivered finally.

I am stoked too that it runs good on AMDGPU as it pairs nicely with my RX 480 - I just borrowed a copy for 20 minuets and it seemed fun.

StarMade, the Minecraft-like spaceship builder now has a brand new launcher, be sure to try the demo!

This is a game I always thought to try, but would never buy with limited information - a demo seems like the perfect lure.
