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 I would be interested to start from the first beta, but it's hard to find an outdated client.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 :-)

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.

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 :-)

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?)

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).

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.

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 :)

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 :-)

Quoting: KristianSomething I hadn't thought about before seeing you mention webGL in your post: There is a webGL, will there be a webVulkan?

I don't think this is ever going to happen, since vulkan allows you to access hardware at a very low level, this would probably be too dangerous for web applications. Moreover, you need to be able to adapt to every supported gpu out there if you go the vulkan way ( handling different memory bandwidth, and capacity, etc, if you want to do it correctly). While this is certainly doable for big engines, I don't see every web developer doing this.

Don't quote me on this, however, I am not a specialist, and there are people better fit to answer you :-)
