User Submitted Editorial: Current Linux gaming situation
9 December 2015 at 5:43 pm UTC

To be honest I'd be more interested in seeing my complete current list of Steam games ported to Linux than new-ish AAA games being ported. I "miss" my Windows partition due to this*, not for The Witcher 3 or Fallout 4.

Also, lately most of the new games I buy are via kickstarter and normally don't add a pledge unless they have a linux version.

Don't get me wrong though, at some point I will want to play The Witcher 3 or Fallout 4 too but they're just not my preference right now.

* I now I can play some games through a Steam Wine installation but not all of them work and it's just not ideal.

Humble NEOGEO 25th Anniversary Bundle, almost all games available for Linux

Quoting: Eike
Quoting: subI remember the 90s when a Neo Geo was extremely expensive,
especially the cartridges which featured extremely big memory for that time.

Far out of reach - for me. :)

Same here. It was said to have the quality of real video arcade(*) games - but it felt like it had the price of a complete video arcade(*) as well. :D

(*) Is there no expression like "arcade hall" or something in English to make clear it's an actual house?

I believe people said "going to the arcade" or maybe to the arcade centre? Although couldn't confirm that, English is not my native language either.

Dreamfall Chapters Book 4 Released Along With Engine Upgrade

Is it closer to The Longest Journey or to Dreamfall? First one is amongst my favorites graphic adventures... Second has good narrative but as game it's a bit gash.

Why they never port the ones I own. I need my Shogun 2!

Good news anyway :)

Wine 1.8-rc2 released, brings more stability

Quoting: JudasIscariot
Quoting: ArehandoroCould someone please tell me how did he/she managed to install rc1 with winetricks and make it work? Since last update whenever I try to install a program/game wine complaints saying "bad exe format pathtothefile" and winetricks says all the time "wineserer not found". It's driving me a bit mad, can't seem to find the solution.

I saw on a forum that could be due to a broken link in one of the libs, can't remember now which one, but didn't work for me.

I simply compiled rc1 and rc2 from source and I've never seen this issue.

How are you installing WINE 1.8 anyways?

Via apt with sid repositories. I didn't think of compiling them, though. I will give it a try thanks :)

Is the error "wineserver not found" solved in this rc2?
