16 Feb 2016 at 7:18 pm UTC

Quoting: GuestI just hope Blizzard implement this in WoW because it really is the one and only game/application that annoyingly keeps me dual booting.

One can dream.

I thought WoW ran perfectly in Wine.

Quoting: GuestFrom the sound of the GDC talks there will be a few Vulkan titles released by this time next month, so I'm excited to see what they are.

The question is, does Vulkan support automatically mean Linux support?

Amazon launches Lumberyard, a free game engine that will support Linux and have source access

"It's completely free to download and use too, which is quite nice of Amazon to do."

They're not doing it to be nice, they're doing it to be competitive. Remember, every other major game engine is also available for free, so it would be business suicide if Amazon tried to charge for theirs.

Quoting: Mountain ManThe texture bug isn't new.
New for me, I've never had horrible low-res textures while playing on medium or high settings that I remember.

I've encountered it occasionally before today.

Valve rep mentions they will eventually survey Big Picture & SteamOS

I guarantee that Valve knows exactly how many people are using Linux and SteamOS. They need to be able to track that information to make sure the right developers get paid, so I've never been entirely clear on the point of the hardware survey.
