I'm wiping away tears of laughter at the thought that the price of something I want to buy should be tied to my "purchasing power"! Absolutely hilarious stuff. Oh, you're a high earner? You pay ten times what this guy does for exactly the same experience. Brilliant. But... but... why did I kill myself all my life to earn more then...? WHY????
Sat through all nine pages of comments and this was quite the pay off.
Great article btw. I'd like some clarity from Bundle Stars, since I bought one of theirs a year ago or thereabouts and assumed that since it was all Linux-compatible titles, it would be Linux keys I'm buying. Disappointing if that's not the case.

What a save at 6:50 [External Link]! Awesome turnaround dude. I've not played the 1 on 1 games yet, but I might have to start giving them a go.

I'm hyped for this one. I haven't bought Dawn of War yet (not really my thing, but I'll probably pick it up around Christmas), and I haven't finished Life is Strange yet. But this... this is instabuy/instaplay material. Great stuff!

Quoting: g000hIf anyone wants to risk buying it now, 2 weeks before its Linux release, I spotted a sweet deal here:Pretty sure that counts as a Windows sale. And bypasses Feral completely of course. But if supporting Linux gaming isn't a priority for you, that's a decent deal.

66% off the full price.

Anything inspired by BF1/2 is going to be worth a look in my book. Such a great game. I hope this lives up to its potential.

Great to see a title of this quality arrive on the Linux platform. Well done Feral! (again)

Quoting: liamdaweThat's a very unpopular opinion, but very much my experience. Wine gaming is a compromise and relying on it sends developers the wrong message. I don't buy Windows games any more - my last purchase was the Dishonoured expansion back in early 2013, but I've bought around 200 Linux-only games in the subsequent years.Quoting: boltronicsWhy??!?!? These games all work perfectly under Wine. Have for a very long time.It's all about building up our library without having to resort to hacks like Wine, which never truly work properly.
If they wanted to truly release Warhammer games for a new audience, they should have ported Space Marine! That's a game that does not work under Wine, probably only because of copy protection.

I paid full price for Firewatch - loved it. I loved the story, the build up, the mystery, the ending. Superb stuff. I keep meaning to play it through again, but there's not a huge amount of re-playability, so I'll leave it another few months, I think.
Creepy Castle, an exploratory, sidescrolling RPG about an awesome moth comes to Linux on October 31st

Such an epic soundtrack and cool trailer to disguise... what are those, Gameboy colour graphics? Not my scene. Maybe ten, let's call it fifteen years ago. Not today.
Quoting: GuestHorrible music…How very dare you! :) A bit of glam, operatic rock music never hurt the power-rangers...
Space Pirates and Zombies 2 still planned for Linux, not due for at least another 4 months

I've also heard very good things about Captain Forever Remix, but I've yet to bite that bullet and buy it.

Quoting: LinasThe best part of SPAZ for me was the ship building. I had certain builds for going against pirates, different ones for fighting zombies. Even though the build options were limited, they were easy and satisfying. Hope they do not mess up the system by over-improving it.If you like top-down space shooters with awesome build mechanics, you should check out Reassembly. Absolutely superb.

Here's my review and video of 'RIVE', a fast paced & beautiful action game and the last game from Two Tribes

I bought this via the collection. Because the collection is 40% off (instead of 15% off just the main game) AND I had already bought three other titles, it was cheaper to buy the collection! Looking forward to playing - it looks superb.
