I'm glad I wasn't drinking when I read this. That would've been a mess. This is pretty amazing considering they're not even making an Xbox One version. I almost feel sorry for Microsoft...nah!

Quoting: eigensinnigA question to those who already bought the bundle: Is it possible to play the roms with other emulator than the provided? I am thinking of mame.

Yes, the roms are freely available in the install directory, and they work with other emulators.

Quoting: ProfessorKaos64Is it better yo go high settings with no/low MSAA/FA/AA etc... Or drop to medium with that smoothing?

I tend to use custom settings to get the best performance. Some things can be on high like "anisotropic filtering" and have very little performance impact, whereas setting something like "shadows" or "anti-aliasing" to high can severely drop performance. Tweak it to find the sweet spot or look for an online guide. Just keep in mind that performance is going to be quite a bit lower than what those guides report on Windows, so you'll still need to tweak it to your comfort zone.

Quoting: TobiSGDYes! Now please Dirt Rally also!

If Codemasters porting this game, I see no reason why they wouldn't do Dirt Rally as well.

Quoting: kidoIm happy!

You look very happy in your profile pic. :D

By the way, for anyone who wants to know, this game works great with a Steam controller. I haven't had a chance to try the gyro yet, but I might give it a go this weekend.

Funny, they fixed the fullscreen bug that was never fixed on the Windows version.

Quoting: leillo1975I have a problem: When I execute the game, It shows a window to configure resolution and other issues. When I push the button to start, the game stops in the Grid Autosport logo.

I try in fullscreen, in a window, at 1080 and 720. I use Ubuntu 14.04.3 64bits, with Nvidia 750ti (358.16) and 16GB RAM. My steam library are located in a NTFS shared partition

Are you sure it completely installed correctly? I don't know much about NTFS, but I know some Linux Steam games won't install correctly on FAT32 partitions, something to do with symbolic links I think. Maybe NTFS is the same way?

It reminds me of the original Torchlight port that came out of Humble Bundle years ago. Whenever you attached anything like a hat to the head of your character, the head would disappear.

My question to all you zombiephiles is: Does being headless make a zombie more or less scary?

Quoting: TuxeeI always thought gaming is about playing games, not merely buying games. If you look at the most popular games on Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/stats [External Link]) I'd say that at least 50% of these titles are equally available for Linux, too.

According to SteamDB, the current "Most Played Games" are:

1. Dota 2 *
2. Counter-Strike: Go *
3. Fallout 4
4. Team Fortress 2 *
5. Warframe
5. Civilization 5 *
6. ARK: Survival Evolved *
7. Garry's Mod *
8. Skyrim
9. Football Manager 2016 *

Note that the (*) denotes Linux versions are available. That's 7 out of 9. Also, keep in mind that Valve is making ridiculous amounts of money from Dota 2. The current players are 297,975 compared to 114,050 for Fallout 4. And we know people in Dota 2 are spending money, whereas Fallout 4 spending pretty much stops after purchase. Even if all Valve ever accomplishes with Steam Machines is to convince half of their Dota 2 subscribers to use SteamOS, that would be a huge win.
