A dish this hint out to all Linux users: Do not buy any newer games on gog.com leave them for really old titles that have no chance of a port.

Quoting: liamdaweDon't get me wrong I know Valve has had an effect on games but I was talking more user base, I still doubt Linux's share has increased much at all from Valve's efforts, I believe it can change and will but not seeing it yet.
It seems my comment here has been skipped over by everyone. :'( Or is it that it wasn't clear enough? These stats I was poiting out are as substantial as can be, showing the direct impact of Steam's arrival on Linux and it's big.
No it's just I have 0% trust in those counters. As you look at another counter and it gives you a totally different result.

Also Gameolith FYI was a Linux only store to begin with but went over to Windows and Mac (most likely due to lack of sales).

Personally I of course hope we keep growing after all GOL's success depends on people using Linux heh. I am hoping our new design will help keep us going since near enough everything will be better on it! Makes us much more up to date that's for sure!

Quoting: vipar"People are paying more attention to Linux"

Nah...Linux is just a better alternative to Windows 8 according to Gabe Newell :)
I have extreme doubts that Gabe's words have really swayed anyone. Fact is more people are looking at Linux, the amount of games coming like this speaks for itself really.

Bumadar has it right on, I think it's nice as we have a lot of faced paced shooters but the fact that SS has a single player with a story and co-op is just fantastic. Give me a decent single player over multiplayer anyday.

Verdun - WW1 FPS in Beta and on Greenlight, with Linux support

It's seriously great to see this game starting to support Linux since I am rather vocal about my boredom of quake style shooters.

The port is quite rough though right now I hope they keep hammering out bugs :)
