Surprise! Hello everyone it's been a while since I wrote anything here, so how about a chance to win some Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel keys?
The keys are Steam-only of course, and we have five keys to give-away to lucky Linux gamers that fancy their chances. These keys should be pre-order keys as well, so they should come with the Shock Drop DLC, but apologies in advanced if there is a mix-up and they turn out to be normal keys.
Shutup already, how do I win?
Simple, you need to reply to this article telling us how much you love GamingOnLinux & Aspyr Media.
Four keys can be won this way, but the last key will be given away by Samsai in tomorrow's Live Stream, so look out for that too! Be sure to follow us on Twitch and look out around 5PM UTC tomorrow for the extra key in the Stream from Samsai.
I will pick the winners around Monday/Tuesday evening UTC.
Personal note: This doesn't mean I am returning to write yet that has not been decided by myself. A key give-away is a good starting point though I am sure you will agree!

I would really not use the word "love", because that implies some sort of irrational relationship, which it is not. It just makes sense to read GamingOnLinux to get news about games on Linux, just like it makes sense to go to a shop to buy groceries. And to buy Aspyr games, because that is the quality product. You know, the organic stuff. Yeah, I am a romantic. :)

I write a monthly video game column for Full Circle Magazine (The independent magazine for the Ubuntu Linux community). Writing a monthly video game article for a Linux publication means always having to find the latest and greatest games available so I can play them and do a review on them. Gaming on Linux is usually one of the first places I look to see what's available before I make a purchase and start playing. The games I review come out of my pocket, no one else buys them for me, so being well informed before spending money is a crucial part of writing a review. Gaming on Linux is reliable, a great source of information and it's fun to read.
One of the latest games I've had the pleasure of purchasing and playing is Borderlands 2 which was recently made available for Linux thanks to Aspyr in September 2014. The Linux port by Aspyr is just what the Linux community needed; not only that, but also the support that Aspyr provides through the Steam community makes problem solving a walk in the park.
I deeply admire both Aspyr as well as GamingOnLinux for their commitment and dedication to Linux. I am low on money at the time but hope to still do a review of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel pretty soon.

I actually had never heard of Aspyr until they did Civilization. I dont know how glad I got that day, I think I crushed my monitor. Its great that these games are being ported, and from day one its not even called a port. I really like Aspyr, same with Feral! But Civilization takes the cake. So, Aspyr is my favourite! (XCom)
I found GamingOnLinux through searching for "Gaming Linux" lol. I've fell in love with this site now. I'm still pretty new here, but thanks a lot Liam for doing this! I would donate if I had any money :/

Slightly brazen on my end, but I registered just to test my chances. I've been a relatively long-time reader (ever since Steam was about to pop for Linux). What can I say, I've got my daily gaming news fix (thanks, GoL), I've got my regular Civ5 fix (thanks Aspyr)... Haven't had a windoze partition for a while now, and I'm a very happy camper indeed because we get such awesome games streaming out.
P.S. I'm guilty of buying too many games lately, and I can't play them all, so I held off buying BL until I catch up on my backlog. Might be my lucky day :).

I love gamingonlinux because it's the best place for those special people who refuse to go with the status quo. This place fosters a community for said people and creates a voice for the Linux Gaming community to speak to developers.
I love Aspyr because it's about time Linux got some love too. Why port games that have to run on sometimes two generation old hardware with slow locked down cpus (MACS), when you can port a game for systems that can truly max the game out for less than $1000.
And yes I realize this is late :)

Late to the party (it's OK, don't have the hardware to run the game properly yet), but Aspyr have a warm little place in my heart, being the people who have supplied my Mac games for ages. And what a time I chose to switch to Linux, with them coming over as well. Awesome bunch. Especially thanks for Return to Castle Wolfenstein a decade ago, I played the ever-loving crap out of that multiplayer.
GOL is essential to Linux gaming news. It's the only site with an updated Linux gaming focus, and while I'm sceptical to user-submitted stuff, the quality is really good.

I love GamingonLinux because you specializes in Linux games but also give general reviews of the games you look at. I'm a big Aspyr fan because they makes such great ports (Civ 5 etc) to both Linux and mac
