QuoteFurthermore, Project CARS will also be coming to Valve’s Steam OS, extending an existing partnership with Steam that has already allowed tens of thousands of WMD members the ability to download and play builds of the game during its development and allow specific multiplayer and social features that are only possible using this unique platform.

Are you f*cking kidding me??....I've never thought, that this game will come to Linux. Little bit sad, that almost every one is it calling "steamos" but nah.... very good news. Thanks Valve and developers :)

Well it won't be available outside of Steam, they are specifically targeting the SteamOS Linux runtimes...I think saying SteamOS version is fair?

I am amazed. I honestly didn't think they'd bring this. I wonder if this will help push our graphics drivers even further! (Looking at you AMD, Nvidia and Intel)
Every week seems to be even cooler news for Linux gaming :D

Little bit sad, that almost every one is it calling "steamos" but nah.... very good news.Well yeah, they are targeting Steamos only. Valve could have called their distro SteamLinux or even better, SteamGnuLinux, but it wouldn't have sounded as good. As long as they keep mentionning that it actually is Linux in official places, I'm ok with that.

Nice! I hope this game have realistic physics like Forza 3 or 4, or at least near it.

Well, i already said, that was just little piece of my " linuxfanboy's" heart, I didn't mean to be disrespectful... it would just sound better to me if they have annouced linux version for upcoming SteamOs :)... it's pity, i know and as i said, I am glad and thankful to all developers and Valve. All these news about supporting linux and games are just amazing and I keep buying all of them as long as I have money, because this is what we all wanted for years.Little bit sad, that almost every one is it calling "steamos" but nah.... very good news.Well yeah, they are targeting Steamos only.

I saw some pictures and this game is awesome! What really intrigues me is the fact that some people still don´t see the benefits of Steam to Linux gaming and how Valve helped to improve graphic drivers, now we have one more developer supporting Linux with an AAA title, the more the better!

Wow... definitely a top of the wishlist title
Scratch that, this one can immediately bypass the wishlist and go straight to the library!

I'm excited that a major title is coming to Linux. Won't be buying it though as racing games are not my cup of tea.

Well, they call it SteamOS since it's linux the platform they'll officially support. It's what was needed in Linux for a long time, some company stepping in making a "standard" for gaming, where the developers can focus on supporting it. Nevertheless, the community is known to make it work on all linux distros, we won't get support of the developers though.
I don't know yet about SteamOS, but maybe we can get a classical desktop (kde, gnome, xfce or what ever) too on it with office and dev environments so I can use the OS for gaming and working. That will be upon Valve or the community to build repos supporting that stuff.

When it will be out, I am going to try SteamOS for sure. I hope Valve will be successful with Steam machines and OS. It will definitely change PC gaming.Are you f*cking kidding me??....I've never thought, that this game will come to Linux.

I will try it, might even buy a steambox if it is inside my price range.
Since SteamOS is opensource any functionality we need to make work on any other distros can be emulated easily (but i don't think its likely.)

Ok it's for sure now. I have to set up a computer with SteamOs and race these cars....
Hopefully, all my hardware will be supported in the game. That's the reason why I don't go on with the consoles for gaming.
Fingers crossed...
