Quoting: lucinosI wonder, does "Creeper World 3: Arc Eternal" count as TD? If it does it should be on the list. :)

Yes, Creeper World 3 is an awesome TD game! :D

I'm guessing scaine hasn't had the chance to play this yet as he would likely have put it on this list :)

Intel announce a new CPU with AMD graphics and HBM2 memory
6 Nov 2017 at 7:13 pm UTC

Quoting: BrisseThis is no surprise really. It's been rumoured for quite a while.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

This is basically AMD and Intel taking a stab at Nvidia. I don't think this will compete with traditional APU's. This is more targeted towards competing with mid-range discreet graphics like GTX 1060 and providing that in a much more neat package.

This does seem to be a pretty reasonable explanation as to why they partnered up. Intel HD graphics is okay for the lower end, but just doesn't compare to AMD or Nvidia beyond that.

F1 2017 is officially coming to Linux, releasing November 2nd from Feral Interactive

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLI think more request have The Witcher 3 or Skyrim... so in my opinion this "popular demand" is not exactly true.

It's up to the publisher (the rights holder) of the game. Popular Demand + Agreement Between Publisher and Feral = Port

If you lack either *demand* or *agreement* there will be no port. If an agreement is available but there's no demand the port won't happen either. It's not bad to demand the above games. The rights holders to those titles may change their minds in a year, or maybe not, who knows.

Yeah, this is such a fun game, I really should get back into it since it's been released (I was playing it in Early Access).

But, the good news is that another open source engine, the Banshee Engine, is currently adding Linux support including the editor! :)

I was just talking with the developer about an hour ago:

Get thinking, as Feral Interactive are teasing another new Linux port

I'm almost certain this is RotR. I feel so relieved I canceled my Humble Monthly Bundle subscription.

I cancel it on months the main game isn't a Linux title, then re-subscribe when it is.
