Missed the giveaway. Oh well. I can wait. This looks pretty neat. Will definitely check it out when it's out of closed beta.

I love Adventure games, and this is one of the few series I have yet to play. Definitely will be checking this out in the near future.

Well that sucks. I was looking forward to seeing what this thing is. I hope this isn't as bad a sign as it appears to be........

FPS game 'Day of Infamy' has a big update with a new map, new environment art and more

This is a shame. :( DOI is my favorite Linux native FPS hands down. But lately it's been giving me nothing but headaches. I recently switched to Ubuntu 17.10 and it simply would not work, would not even execute program.

I thought it was my Mesa drivers alone at first so I downgraded them to padoka stable ppa from the regular padoka ppa, as sometimes the bleeding edge drivers can have issues, and it still would not start. Then I downgraded back down to Ubuntu 16.04.3 and it worked fine on that. So I'm thinking DOI doesn't like 17.10's newer default kernel.

Also, the dreadful loading times they have yet to fix make me want to wipe my exterior with a live, very upset porcupine. What is the deal with that? By the time I load into the game I have to either wait for a while to join in or the match is nearly over. Sheesh!

With that said, I still love this game and I hope that the devs don't drop the ball and hopefully they give us the 64-bit upgrade and squash these bugs and niggles in the near future. A man can dream eh?

Dominions 5 - Warriors of the Faith, the latest deep 4x turn based strategy game is now out

Bought it immediately as I always do. Day one. Dominions is my 2nd favorite strategy series right after Europa Universalis. So deep and varied. One can get lost in this game for hundreds or thousands of hours.

Point & Click adventure game Black Mirror now available on Linux

Quoting: ZlopezI didn't know there will be a reboot of the trilogy. I played all the games from original trilogy and I'm glad there will be something new in this world.

BTW: I never heard about the TV serie.

Pretty much exactly what I was going to say. I loved this series back in the day and I look forward to a reboot with modern tech. A lot has changed since the early/mid 2000s.I will definitely be getting this soon.
