Quoting: liamdaweShall we continue? DRM is not good for gamers, and anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't really know what DRM is.Well, much as I agree with you, I would kind of prefer if people actually talked about my article. :|

I would respond to the comment left by GoCorinthians if I could work out anything more than an inarticulate screed from it and a rather childish jab at my praising Frictional for their support of the DRM free gaming community.

Quoting: Segata SanshiroCan't really say much for SOMA from what's out there at the moment. What I can say is that it really annoys me when people misuse names from books - in this case Soma, but I can't see any relation between the game and Brave New World other than the setting being the exact opposite.When I heard the title I thought of Huxley as well, but I think it actually has more to do with the biological and Latin understanding of the word:

Quoting: Segata SanshiroNot sure about multi-monitor because (so I've heard) it's very hard to run well under Linux and not many games support it.It is indeed variable - I use Zaphod Mode for my two screens specifically because of the fact it keeps games from interfering with them, but there are an increasing amount of people actually playing games on Linux with more than one head, although still probably not enough to truly justify adding it to the survey as of yet.

Nice work with the charts and everything Segata. :)
I am glad to see as many people using the FOSS drivers as there are, even if it only came to 18%.

Quoting: muntdefemsI've tried all the games in the bundle except for Amnesia: AMFP and almost all of them seemed to work fineWell, I can of course say that technically AMFP runs well thanks to the great work of Frictional Games and Edward Rudd. No problems there.

Not that it affects me of course, but don't you just love publishers? :S:

Quoting: 5-Bits GamesAs promised, the people that chose to support us during the development / alpha stage, will receive both Desura and Steam keys ... That is something we have dealt with our publisher Bandai Namco from the beginning and we will give our supporters their Steam key. BUT please note that we WON'T provide Steam keys anymore now that the game has been released on both Stores: people will have to choose which of the DRM-free or Steam version they want to buy.http://www.desura.com/games/deadlock/news/important-about-steam-keys [External Link]

Makes me wish I did not bother getting AMFP separately last spring, especially since I did not really enjoy it.
But again, I should really save that bit of whining for my next article...
