DiRT Showdown Tested On Linux, Preview Port Report
4 Aug 2015 at 1:08 pm UTC

Quoting: liamdaweUPDATE: 970 tests have been re-done showing the proper results. It seems my last Nvidia driver update wiped my config and forced Vsync on, apologies, blame Nvidia or something.

I will re-do the 560ti results tonight too.
Thanks liam. Ineed, these figures are much better. Too bad you can't compare with an amd graphics card :P

It seems strange that the previous setting had you have sub-60 fps, though.

New Linux Gaming Survey For August
4 Aug 2015 at 11:46 am UTC

Quoting: mboucharI stream my games from my desktop PC to my laptop while I'm on my sofa (with Steam streaming). So, not sure if it counts as Desktop, Laptop or Sofa PC...
I guess that in this case, "Sofa" is the right answer.
Kidding aside, I am planning to do the same... If only the streaming client could be ported to more devices... I already started to look at reverse-engineering the protocol, but it looks quite complex now. I would be interested to start from the first beta, but it's hard to find an outdated client.

Edit : other than that, I am terribly excited about vulkan :-)

Codename CURE, A First Person, Co-operative Zombie Game Now On Linux
2 Aug 2015 at 5:48 pm UTC

Agreed. Or they could have been a little more original with the story : given that they use the source engine, and many of valve's games' assets, a zombie shooter in the half-life universe would have been kind of cool... You know, a bit like opposing force, fighting zombies as a MP member.

Shallow Space Looks Like The Spaceship RTS Game Linux Is Needing, Some Thoughts
2 Aug 2015 at 2:43 pm UTC

Looks like my cup of tea (although I am currently on GPRS, so I can't say for sure).

I've been waiting for a game like this one to come to Linux for a long time. I spent many hours with Sins of a solar empire back then :-)

Gunscape, FPS World-building Hybrid Launches For Linux September 9th
27 Jul 2015 at 10:53 am UTC

Quoting: RTheren8 players on ONE SCREEN!? MY goddness :O
Actually, I am a bit disappointed; steam machines support up to 16 controllers :-P

Just kidding. But it would be nice to have things such as bomberman with support for a lot of controllers.

This one looks interesting; the visuals remind me Minecraft a lot, but prettier (not for mobs, though. They look ugly. Is there any reason for this?)

Not interested in this game.

Feral Interactive Are Teasing Us, Again
22 Jul 2015 at 3:43 pm UTC

From 3 months ago :
Quoting: ellieferal
Quoting: autonomouseSo... does the follow mean that Feral Interactive have announced Deus Ex: Mankind Divided for Linux?
Nope! We promise, if we have any Linux plans for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided we'll tell you with words, not with THE REQUESTINATOR.
Well, after all, there are words on this page, so my guess is Deus Ex :-P

(I have other random guesses somehow related to the hint, but I can't write them down from my mobile phone).

Aspyr Media Are Teasing A New Launch Tomorrow
21 Jul 2015 at 11:10 am UTC

Quoting: FergleFerglesonGiven my experiences so far with Aspyr, they could release an empty text file and I'm going to buy it first-day, and then pick-up whatever text-file DLC they want to release. :)
Sure, but it has to be well priced.

Quoting: FredOWhat about Evolve, do we know who's porting that? That's also a MAC/Linux port.
Virtual Programming, IIRC.

Get Your Hands On A Steam Controller Early, If You're A Developer

Quoting: r2rX
Quoting: MayeulCIt happens that I am developing a small game with friends, as a hobby. Do you think I should apply ?
You might as well. :D
Well, I did just that. Since we don't have a website yet, I just put 127.0.0.1 in the form. I wonder what will be their reaction :)

Sail The Seas In ‘Windward’, Some Thoughts On This Arrrr Game
15 Jul 2015 at 1:56 pm UTC

I've been pretty interested in this game. It reminds me of Sid Meier's Pirates ! on the original Xbox

I would love to play it with a steam controller; with cannons mapped to right and left grip, and a big haptic feedback when you fire. This would be awesome :-)
