World of Goo 2 is out now on Steam and GOG - a great pick for puzzle game fans

The first one was freaking hard if you try to get the OCD award on the levels, I only get in few levels of the first world, then I just ignore it

Croc Legend of the Gobbos Remaster out now on GOG
8 Apr 2025 at 3:31 pm UTC Likes: 5

I love this game and would like to support it to maybe they release Croc 2, but it's currently a bit expensive. 15x the price that I paid for Croc 2, 20 years ago.

Phoenix Point is that bad? I was hyped for it, but to be honest, I forgot about it after the end of the EGS exclusivity.

EA just open sourced Command & Conquer, Red Alert, Renegade and Generals

They should do this more often, it's an infinite money source, they do a positive advertisement to a pretty old game, people buys them and the community do the job to "update" the game to current standards

The glibc 2.41 update has been causing problems for Linux gaming
13 Feb 2025 at 11:22 pm UTC Likes: 1

glibc always causes trouble, it completely broke CSGO years ago and it took some months to Valve fix it. That's some of many issues that I have which made me hate native games.

Linux is fantastic to open source projects, but awful to proprietary. That's why it's nice to have a layer between the OS and the game.

Thankfully they listen their fan base and changed that awful purple skin, now this looks interesting! I hope that they oversells the latest pop released, so who knows if Ubi learn something and stop doing bullsh*t with their IPs

Xfce 4.20 desktop released with experimental Wayland support
16 Dec 2024 at 1:12 pm UTC

I love XFCE, but I love even more Wayland, which was the reason that I stopped using it. However this implementation sounds like a workaround. I want an alternative to Gnome and KDE, but looks like only Cosmic can fight them.

The best Linux distribution for gaming in 2025
3 Dec 2024 at 3:32 pm UTC Likes: 1

To be the best distro for gaming, it should have support to the major "gaming tools" available, I installed Kubuntu 24.04 on my laptop and had issues trying to compile gamescope, I gave up.

But it's a decent choice for everyday usage, I'm not fan of KDE but the implementation on Kubuntu is solid, Snaps works fine (I almost forgot that Firefox was as Snap, as it worked seemly), and you can install the "non-snap" Steam easily.

Linux GPU Configuration Tool 'LACT' adds NVIDIA support
16 Nov 2024 at 3:10 pm UTC

Clocks configuration now works on AMD IGPUs (at least RDNA2). Previously it was not parsed properly due to lack of VRAM settings.
What? Is it possible to handle the VRAM size of the iGPU? I'll try it later.
