I'm going to build a space wall to keep them out, and the Ragerian Dominion is going to pay for it! ;)

The game certainly looked decent with all the settings turned up, but as soon as I started playing, it went bonkers with the Steam controller. When I went into the menu to adjust controls, it started showing artifacts and giving me Windows 95 mouse trails.

I'm still getting a login failure as well.

It sounds like Chen was trolling you, which maybe isn't so good for an NPC.

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, the top-down stealth game is now out

This game is awesome. I think the only way it could get better is if they eventually added workshop support. A level editor would make the fun endless.

I didn't expect the character to be animated. Hitman Go has static board game pieces. Looks interesting.

Thanks for alerting us to this. I would've been wondering what went wrong if you hadn't.

Saints Row IV gets Steam Workshop support for Windows, they are hoping to update the Linux version too

Quoting: GuestI played Saints Row IV to the end a few months ago and had no issue with it that I can remember. And it wasn’t hard to configure it to reach 60 FPS with good graphics (on a Core i5 / GTX 660).
Really? Did you actually measure the framerate, or were just eyeballing it and wishing it was 60? Or were you playing at 1280x720 (or even lower)? I have an i5 / GTX 970, and even on the lowest settings (still at 1920x1080), it would drop down into the 40s on Linux. On Windows it stayed over 100 FPS, and even back when I had a GTX 660, it stayed over 60 at all times on Windows. I'd say it was a pretty lousy port.

Quoting: PixelPiIs there a possibility to limit the game to constant 30 fps?
You can try libstrangle [External Link]. I use it to limit Mad Max and Dying Light to 60 FPS so it’s likely it will work with Deus Ex too.
That's a great little program. Thanks! It makes Mad Max much more playable for me.

X-Plane 11 system requirements revealed, needs plenty of RAM

Quoting: z3ntuThat's a LOT of RAM :o
The minimum requirement is 8 GB of RAM, still quite a bit for a game, but probably low enough for most people.
