I picked up 'Slain: Back from Hell' on GOG. Played some of it. Looks like a great Saturday morning game to rock as my kids get up and ready for the day.

Quoting: RafiLinuxQuick question on Humble Bundle games for sale. How can you tell that the game they are selling is available in binary form along with the Steam key?
I assume you want a DRM-free download?
Scroll down a bit below the video or screenshot, and check that the Tux logo is there:

Cool. So it has to say DRM FREE and have the Linux logo. Great! Before it use to say binary and steam key on the tooltip.

Quoting: RafiLinuxI really want to get the MK 1,2 and 3 from GOG but why is it not available on Linux since it's DOSBOX? Does anyone own these and run them natively on Linux? I do mean these DOS version not any other emulated version.
Yep. GOG don't have installers for many DOSBOX games and then they don't list Linux for that game. DOSBOX is the same on any OS, so you can make it work. You'll need to install the game using wine or extract it (don't know the tools for that) and extract the game.
This is one of the reasons why I wish they'd just ship the raw game as well as installers.

Me too. I wish ROMS were sold and you chose the emulated you wanted to work with. Like the NeoGeo stuff from HB.

I bought it but now I am having trouble getting my Logitech F310 working with the game. Many on GOG are having the same issue on other platforms.

The developer of fighting game "Shaolin vs Wutang" seems up for a Linux port

Quoting: TcheyKings of Kung Fu was/is an unfinished mediocre product, with many player's inputs not taking care of. I actually feel it was abandoned, and i put its developers on my "avoid list". So, they have to do a really great job to gain my trust again, and from what i seen now, it's not yet.

Man that sucks to hear. Is it a gamepad issue/keyboard issue or across the board?
