With Stellaris coming out in May, this in June plus through in Uncharted 4 for may whilst still being addicted to CK2 and EU4...

I hope it's Napoleon Total War next, or Rome 1. Tbh, all of them would be amazing enough, but this is a great game. Time to conquer Europe again as Scotland...

Looks like Total War: Rome II might not be coming to Linux & SteamOS now

I'd be happy as a pig in sh.. if Rome 1 were ported over. Never got into Rome 2 since first day release was about a 2min wait between turns!

Rome 1 with some napoleon: TW stuff (like army reinforcement) would be just right. If this Rome 2 comes out I'll play it, in the meantime I might give Atilla a go, who knows.

Civilization: Beyond Earth - Rising Tide Expansion Released & Thoughts From A Civ Addict

Since time is important to me more then anything these days, I have the feeling that I should wait for the next expansion pack. I played Civ5 when it was released and it basically put me off the game forever even though I own all the DLC's (and hell, Civ on Linux! still can't get over that) but too me Civ4 is still the perfect civ, and I have tried Civ5 when it got released on our platform.

So, ill buy this (Thanks Aspyr) and wait for next one. Sounds like then it would rival Alpha Centauri. In the meantime back to EU4 and Crusader Kings 2!

Medieval II: Total War Looks Set For Linux, Possibly From Feral Interactive

So many time consuming games being ported, can barely keep up. Still, should have finished Shadow of Mordor by the weekend so can pick something up next.

Also, quite a few games I already own. Ah well, time to buy another copy off Feral and donate!

As soon as it goes live properly, I'll get a couple of copies and donate to this site. SO many games I already own but as always, gotta get some money to the porting house someway.

Awesome news (as of now, the game appears in my linux list but nothing to install)

End Of An Era, LinuxGames Website Looks To Be Shutting Down
16 Jul 2015 at 9:43 pm UTC

Until I came across this site by accident, LinuxGames was were I got all my information from, I remember reading about the "next great" Loki game to come out and the time Loki dead.

Damn, been doing this Linux gaming lark a bloody long time now, I've noticed for a good while now that this site was very very quiet, but still proudly top of my "linux-gaming" RSS feed menu.

Hopefully Ryan takes it over, probably quite a bit about him on there from the early days "wow SDL sounds good, should be out soon.."
