Ah nice! The movie is funny, bought the game a while back (works in wine, but crashes a lot).
I'll try the Linux beta right away!

BallisticNG, a racer inspired by Wipeout has unstable builds for Linux on Steam

Quoting: OfficerHonkenGooseI vaguely remember there being an in development Rollcage 'clone' a while back - can't remember if it was Linux though! (Also can't remember what it was called... :S:
It's Grip, in fact available on early access on steam. But sadly devs stated they probably won't be able to work on a Linux build ( https://cagedelement.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2315#p2315 [External Link] ).

Woaw, how come I've never heard of it before !?
It looks amasing and captured the original feeling of wipeout.

Helium Rain, a realistic UE4 space simulation game is coming to Linux in 2017, looks brilliant
13 Dec 2016 at 7:19 pm UTC

Quoting: Niavokin Helium Rain bullets don't just deal constant damages. They have a mass and an muzzle velocity but the damages depend only on kinetic energy at impact (for inert bullets). So the velocity of your ship and the velocity of your opponent have an huge impact on damage. Bullets fired when crossing an enemy ship at high velocity deal a lot more damage than bullets fired when chasing.
Wow, newtonian based physics for flight AND combat !?
That will for sure be really innovative in a space opera game. Hopefully the realism won't take away the fun.

OpenMW 0.40 released, playing Morrowind on Linux natively gets closer to perfection

Quoting: rustybroomhandleI see this requested often. What exactly would one do in a multiplayer version of this? How would questing work, for example?
The way most cooperative rpg works: quest and objectives are shared between players.

This game was so awesome (superior by many aspect to its sequels). Hope openmw will finally implement a proper multiplayer for this game !
