It's sad as I used to love Chris Taylor when he worked on Total Annihilation & Supreme Commander 1, when it go to Supreme Commander 2 I lost a lot of love for him.

Thankfully we have uber and Planetary Annihilation coming this year :)

Quoting: Anonymousstill not many games not available on linux. Number might increase as the list grows.

Games attract people but games don't come with out the people...

This annoyed me more now since I found out, Braid has been a top 10 selling app in the Ubuntu Software Centre for 16 consecutive months now yet he still says this?

Quoting: s_dWorld domination is great and all, but honestly, I'll be satisfied just being taken seriously... let's hope that's where this is all going

Indeed I hope the same at least Valve is taking us seriously!

Quoting: Dis@liamdawe Which games are those exactly? I have 18 games installed on steam alone and the only one that fails to run is Anomaly:Warzone Earth . In any case i'd expect the devs to at least reach out to AMD and not a we don't know how to fix it reply. Additionally the game also fails to start on Intel drivers. When you keep in mind that the game actually runs on mobile phones that is not ok imo. 

In any case, while Catalyst still has quite a bit of catching up to do compared to Nvidia it is no longer the unusable mess it was a couple of years ago

I used to be a catalyst user for many years and only changed in the last 2 ish months to Nvidia just FYI.

For one thing one of the recent AMD beta update drivers couldn't even load Steam at one point. They never seem to release change logs when they do a Linux drivers anymore (What are they hiding?!).

I don't have a list to hand of games that don't work or worked poorly since I am now an Nvidia user and a happy one too, things could have changed since I last used AMD but even 2~ months ago it wasn't great.

Quoting: avarisclariI won't be buying it. I have good reason. They have terrible CS. http://steamcommunity.com/app/91200/discussions/0/864959088378262156/#p2 [External Link]

What I got from reading all of this is not bad developers but bad AMD catalyst drivers - AMD drivers cause issues for lots of games I see it all the time.

The admin of the official forum stated they are working to sort the bug but don't want to give an eta to make people annoyed if they miss it - fair enough.

Good to see people do share my views, Braid is a good game but nothing even close to how "amazing" people seem to say it is.

I'm getting kind of bashed on reddit for my views on this, see this here: http://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/19beiw/jonathan_blow_braid_on_the_possibility_of_a_linux/c8mia5q [External Link]

I get what the guy is trying to say (even if he is blowing it out of proportion with his murder analogy) but he seems to be blindly sticking up for the developer.
