Quoting: pete910I'll just point out that the steam versions are DRM free too. you can run them without steam running/starting
You still need the Steam client running to download them, there's been debates on this but that's still a small form of DRM to some people.

Anyway, let's not turn this into a DRM war heh.
:huh:

I guess when you buy it off GoG then it just appears on your system...

For Linux gamers, you can now set extra mouse buttons to do things, which is apparently a big thing (I never use mine).
Finally!
Or just use this kind of mouse [External Link], which has 6 extra buttons that are hard-mapped to keyboard numpad 1-6 or numrow 1-6 (switchable under the mouse). It works out of the box on Linux, no driver needed. <3
Or any of the roccat gear, All there stuff is fully fucntinal under linux. It's what i use a good few games now :D



Quoting: subAnd still no official AMD support...
Don't know why ether as it runs well on a 290x at least.

Nice to see they are updating both and what not. BL2 is the game with most hours played in my now rather large linux game list :P

Great, your one of these elitists that unless you run gnome or what ever on debian its "shity"

Insurgency FPS Now Officially Available On Linux

Been running the beta too, Working damn well for me. The amount of updates/fixes they have done in the past few days is remarkable.

The game it's self is damn fun, frustrating at times but very rewarding so to speak.

Nice that going solo/rambo just ends in almost insta-death too, Makes team work / communication key !

It's funny that I like this as I never got into CS:go :dizzy:
