Someone has posted some videos of Shadow Warrior (and Outlast) running on RadeonSi:

It seems to run okay. I should really just grab the binary and test it out on R600g myself though.

Yeah, I know. What I was referring to was not downloading the binary right away when it was released on Tuesday.

Quoting: IvancilloHas anyone a Phenom or Phenom II on his rig?
I can't run Shadow Warrior. It prompts "Illegal instruction" at the command line.

The issue has been resolved. It now runs on my Athlon X3 and from the Steam forums it seems that it works too for a guy with a Phenom II.

Perfs with Mesa/RadeonSi are bad, I've yet to test the game with Catalyst (but I'd like to avoid this).

Care to elaborate a bit when it comes to Mesa/RadeonSi?

Regardless, seeing as I do have a Phenom II I made the right decision when it comes to waiting on downloading it.

If they put up a few LucasArts titles I might be able to reclaim them. Specifically Dark Forces II and Republic Commando if I can dig up our old CD Jewel Cases.

Quoting: oldrocker99An amazingly thorough presentation, Liam, and I am impressed with the effort you went through :woot:

Only it was Samsai that did it. Credit where credit is due and all that.

All that I can say is that I personally have had nothing but good experiences with R600g ever since I got my Radeon HD 4670 back in 2011 and that I am still having great experiences with my new Radeon HD 6870 in 2015.

Now that I own the new Shadow Warrior I will finally be able to properly test out the new card though. Other than Trine 2 I have been lacking in terms of a decent benchmark.

Thanks to the launch of yesterday's Humble Indie Bundle, I had a lot more Linux game purchases to report for March. :)

I also grabbed both of the Enhanced Editions of Baldur's Gate from GOG.com earlier in the March, so that brings me to nine games in total.

First time in a long time I saw a Humble Bundle and just bought it. On the spot. Without hesitation. Yes.

I am nigh on incoherence right now. :woot:

Talk to Bethesda. With Carmack gone the id name is just a lucrative IP pool.

I have posted on the GOG.com forums to ask about if/when this will also appear there:
Shadow Warrior (2013) Linux and Mac - Coming to GOG.com? [External Link]

It would be nice if the new Rise of the Triad could also makes its way to Linux at some point, not that I am complaining mind. :)
