I have a bad feeling buying "Early Access" esp. with 75% off.

They could introduce a red SteamOS logo, indicating that it is possible but not (yet) officially supported.

Quoting: KeyrockWe're pioneers, trailblazers, intrepid explorers creating a path for future generations to follow, just like Lewis & Clark, Vasco de Gama, Ferdinand Magellan, and Zheng He.
Epic. But you forgot Zuse and Turing, Thompson & Ritchie. ^_^

My package arrived in Germany so I'm confident to get my hands on the controler tomorrow! So I will see by my own.

Our Linux Game Release Calendar Has Been Slightly Revamped
13 Oct 2015 at 2:02 pm UTC

Quoting: liamdaweInstead, you will now be greeted with the current month which is much more useful, and you're able to select a specific month now too. Previously you could only change the year. As an addition you can now link directly to a month and year on the calendar like so.
Thanks, I suggested that as it was more and more annoying as the year went on and more and more games were announced/released! <3

Quoting: blog.camposanto.comCircle February 9 on your calendar, gather your friends, and put your camping trips on hold: Firewatch is coming to Windows, Mac, Linux, and PlayStation 4. At the same time!
Sounds great!

Valve Is Trolling Us With A New Half-Life 3 Leak
10 Oct 2015 at 6:12 pm UTC

Quoting: wolfyrionValve will announce Half Life 3 for ALL OS + Vulkan Support for HL3 - it will be the first game supporting FULL Vulkan API in cooperation with Nvidia and ATI.
i would go with that. There has been some time to release some (early) specifications of Vulkan, but they didn't, so I suspect them to release it with some game instead of just a demo. This will be most likely a Valve game on Source 2 engine, and since Dota 2 reborn is already out this might be Half-Life 3 (or less likely Portal 3)

They deserve our respect but exclusivity makes the money. Who would ever buy a Xbox if Halo wasn't Xbox only (*some were released years after for Win), me not. (Own Xbox 360 with Halo 4 but no other game)

I don't think this is an mishap since its so easy to filter for "hl3":
eg: grep -r "hl3" .goes even deeper.

Quoting: liamdaweI still haven't finished Half-Life 2,
WTF, Half-Life 2 is one of the most sold PC titles ever and its metascore of 96/100 is just incredible.
