To the Moon was brilliant !

The Witcher 2 Gains Yet Another Performance Beta
14 Aug 2014 at 5:59 pm UTC

On Medium (1920x1080) it's sadly another story with it on the exact same area hitting a max of 20FPS, and with dips down to 9-10FPS regularly. The input lag does seem to be sorted, but the game-play does still feel sluggish and not playable.
to be fair you should match this to your same laptop running windows & the witcher 2.

The Journey Down Chapter 2 Is Now Available For Preorder (and supporting charity)
11 Aug 2014 at 3:37 pm UTC

Quoting: Segata SanshiroTrying to decide whether to play this, Book of Unwritten Tales or The Raven next. Any suggestions?
compared to the 2 you mentioned Journey down part 1 is really small, fun though but in size it does not match. BoUT is the best of the 3, raven is 2nd and JD is 3rd (from this list anyways)

Did they finish Dungeons 1 yet ?

that game was a pile of <censored> so I would not get your hopes up to much on nr 2

GOG com Now Officially Support Linux Games
24 Jul 2014 at 3:04 pm UTC

Quoting: wolfyrionI want to start supporting gog as well by buying games from their store but I want every game I purchase to be on my steam account as well , so this is the only thing that is stopping me from buying from them.
I installed all my old DOS games (68 in total = 15gb) using dosbox, made a small script that creates a .desktop for them, opened steam, add none-steam game, select all the .desktop files and there they are in steam working splendid. Did the same for my GoG games (that use dosbox), its pretty simple. Only bad part really is that steam does not like a .sh so that is why the .desktop file is the simplest. You can skip that and just edit the launch line in steam but found my current method easier in the long run

on topic though: will there be a GoG client or I am totally missing it on the page ?

Clockwork Empires From Gaslamp Games Should Be On Linux In August
20 Jul 2014 at 1:12 pm UTC

They have actually had Ryan "Icculus" Gordon working with them on the game too, so it should hopefully be quite a decent game.
not sure how one leads to the others, I assume you mean decent port ? but then so was DoD (no idea of he helped on that) so all should be fine.

Developer Teases With Darksiders On Linux Screenshot

this is all nice and stuff, but do please remember Deathfall Adventure, same publisher (nordic), with many bugs still standing the porter (same as on this game) got pulled and is now thus working on darksiders, not his fault he got pulled but would be nice if nordic stuck to their ports till they sort of bug free.

GOL Cast: Crashing On Zombie Infested Islands in Estranged: Act I
20 Jan 2014 at 5:51 pm UTC

it's quiet enjoyable, only thing I found wrong was the guy at the start, still nasty mobs and his family is missing and he is like here have my gun I don't need it.... would be more convincing if he was hurt/dyeing.

but for the rest good good fun

Double Fine's Broken Age Available For Pre-Order
19 Jan 2014 at 6:07 am UTC

finished act 1, although its a bit short I did enjoy it.  It did not tax my old brain as much as I was afraid it would, puzzles are not unlogical and the only place I got stuck for a little was (trying to avoid spoilers) in the beginning in the ship where I simply did not see something because it was to dark.

Looking forward to act 2 though, and yes Cheeseness is probably right, let act 1 sink in a bit.
