Sony Is Creating A List Of Crowdfunding Projects To Gauge Interest

Quoting: SpeedsterIn other words, the article's real point is a pretty good one... regardless of whether Sony's involvement in crowdfunding is for the better or worse, a lot of us would be happy to see Aspyr and Feral get funded via crowdfunding for porting work that would otherwise be considered too much of a budget risk by the IP owners.

A nice idea in theory, but I doubt they would want to do it for their own business reasons. It would also serve to make Linux look bad if they did it, and it failed.

The title is a bit confusing to see here :p

I will still never pledge on Kickstarter again, simples. Too many risks for me.

I buy games that are on Linux, and not before.

Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions Evolved Content Update Now On Linux
17 Jun 2015 at 6:42 pm UTC

Quoting: XylemonIt still crashes after loading for about 30 seconds on Slackware. I'm very upset because I haven't been able to play this game at all under my system and the support hasn't been there.

Aspyr Media only support Ubuntu.

Looks like the 15.5 catalyst driver is a big improvement.

Quoting: MaelraneI must admit though: If nvidia is the only way to go I'll probably stop this hobby I've been having for more than 15 years now. (gaming) At least on the PC.

Well if you plan to do it on Consoles, Android or iOS, then you're doing exactly the same, only being locked down even further.

It's not Nvidia's fault that games are having issues with AMD.

Quoting: sunbeam4apparently [External Link] it won't be a same day release for mac/linux. time will tell tho.

It hasn't been said anywhere it will be later, that site is making stuff up. It hasn't been said it will be day-1 either, but still, my point is no one has said it will be delayed.
