Rise of the Tomb Raider announced for Linux, port from Feral Interactive
14 Feb 2018 at 6:04 pm UTC

I'm absolutely like that cow, you know the one in the nursery rhyme? Over the moon. Well done Feral Interactive I already own the game but shall be donating the full price of this game to you fabulous people. Thank you so much. The only other Windows game we need on Linux now, well for me anyway is GTA5, but I cannot see that happening at all.

If Feral were to bring any of these games to Linux, that we have listed and if anyone already owns them on another platform, then re-buy them or donate to Feral Interactive and every other game porter to Linux. The amount of hard work and dedication these porters do is truly amazing and not to mention the fantastic programmers out there that made these wonderful individual, Linux OSes for us to play our games on. Sorry speech over.

What games do you want ported to Linux? Feral Interactive want to know again

The problem with porting games to Linux, is getting the backing from the original publishers.
Here is my list of day dream games that I wish and no doubt a lot of other people do? Would like to see come to Linux. I unfortunately do not own a touch screen device, so am not a member of Twitter, so let's hope to God that Feral Interactive read our lists.

1 Metal Gear Solid (Twin Snakes) Nintendo Game Cube version.
2 All the G. T. A games
3 All the Jak & Daxter games (Probably not as never has Naughty Dog published to PC or at least I don't think so.)
4 All the Ratchet & Clank games.
5 The Getaway 1 & 2 (Yes they're old but when I played them on my Playstation 2 they were stunning. Fully mapped streets of London and a cracking plot to boot.)
6 (We Can Dream) Nintendo's versions of Resident Evil, or the Windows version remastered HD version of Nintendo Game Cube Capcom's remake of such a brilliant scary, hammed acting B movie game. Plus all the rest of the Resident Evil games, as we don't have very many Zombie games on Linux.
7 Whether or not the rumors are true about Feral bringing Rise of the Tomb Raider to Linux I wish it so much, so this is at number 7.
8 Again they are old but brilliant, as I don't care what a game looks like, it is the playability that counts and these games still hold true today, Medal Of Honor the very first one on the Play-Station one and all the others, that were released on PS2.
9 Golf games are good, but the Windows version of this next game was rubbish, compared to the PS2's version and I know it won't happen anyway but here goes it is Tiger Woods 2004, the PS2 version, as the PC version was too tricky to get to grips with.
10 In at ten, although these games are pretty old now, the game play was far superior for it's time and the animations were fantastic, did I mention the atmosphere? Well if I didn't then on the edge of your seat you'd be, God Of War series from PS2 days, has to be in this list as I still have not completed them yet. I was debating where abouts to put them in the list, but as they say leave the best till last.

What one game would blow your mind if it came to Linux & SteamOS?

All of the Resident Evils
All the GTA series
All the Ratchet & Clanks
All the Metal Gear Solids
All the Jak and Daxter games
Rise Of The Tomb Raider
All of The Medal Of Honor games
This is just to name but a few, as I cannot think of anymore

What have you been playing on Linux recently and what do you think about it?
8 Jun 2016 at 6:17 pm UTC

I've just been playing Tomb Raider 2013 lately, but after I have completed that I will go onto yes it is an old game, but it is full of atmosphere and the game is Fahrenheit, Originally out on the PS2 but got a Windows and Linux HD remake. Then after I have finished that I will go on to conquer the massively fun ODDWORLD New N Tasty remake, which is 3D and 2D combined. Then will have to try my hand at Dying Light, once I have some spare cash, but before that Left For Dead 2 will have to be completed, shame we can't have the first one, but hey ho. Then just to calm down from all the zombie killing we'll go onto Grim Fandango Remastered.

These games above, apart from Dying Light are all the Linux games I own at the moment, real life gets in the way unfortunately.

My dream would be stranded on an Island with just me my future wife, Totally unlimited free broadband, my Linux Computer but upgraded to a super computer with around 80,000 Quad Core processors that all run as one massive processor the latest in Graphic Card technologies 100,000GB of gaming Ram, 68 trillion TB and a nice Cinema screen sized monitor, to play my games on through Linux of course, I can but dream.

Quoting: nIQnutnwithout demo, I won't buy it due to nvidia driver requirement.
You can still use the driver you are using at the moment. I'm using 361.42 driver with Ubuntu Mate 16.04, that is the recommended driver that's in the proprietary list.

I have been waiting for this, since they announced it coming to Linux. Feral are brilliant at porting games and will no doubt of made a fantastic job on this game. I have been a fan of this game since it's release to the PC in 2013 and now it's out for Linux, no more slowing down or stuff running in the background like on Windows, with Anti-virus and other things constantly slowing down your gaming experiences.

Tomb Raider really does look like it's coming to Linux & SteamOS

I have fully moved over to Linux for gaming now that this game is on the way. I am like that cow with the news of this, truly over the moon.
