We have teamed up with Feral Interactive, who ported XCOM: Enemy Unknown and Empire: Total War to Linux, to bring you a fantastic new competition! Simply guess their next Linux port, and you could win a downloadable copy when it is released!

We are calling this "Operation Feral Penguins"!

Rules & Information
Utilise your tux telepathy (yes, that’s a thing) to guess the title of the first game Feral Interactive is going to bring to Linux in 2015.

Guesses will be read in the following places:
- #FeralPenguins2015 hashtag on Twitter.
- GamingOnLinux: Comment on our article here!
- Feral Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/feralinteractive/

The single winner will be selected from everyone who guesses correctly before the deadline.

The winner will not be announced until the game itself is announced, which will be early 2015. As the competition runs until mid-January, the announcement date shouldn't be too far after, so you won't have to wait long at all.

Deadline for guesses:

15 January 2015 at midnight (UTC)

Now, begin the guessing game, my little army of feral penguins! Fear not though, for I your penguin king am not in this competition for absolute fairness, and I don't even know what it is! Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Quoting: edddeduckferal
Quoting: novemberistAnd I'm not sure if Feral could really port such a massive project (which would be the port of a port basically)

I don't think there is a game that would be "too big" to port, I've never met one so far anyway. :)

Oh, man!... Then (if possible) go for GTA V, please :D That would definitely be an AAAAAAAAAA+ game for SteamBox

Your suggestion is a popular one :), however something being popular doesn't mean it will happen so my reply doesn't mean anything apart from the fact I am reading the thread and listening to all your suggestions and guesses :)

Thanks again for your support of Feral games on Linux :)

This is not a guess, but something that might help narrow guesses down a bit.

If I were running Feral, I'd port games with the following criteria:

Either:
a) Something not yet released, with a lot of hype attached.

b) Something older that has a lot of DLC. The last bit is important because you want to potentially get something out of people who may have previously bought the base game on Windows.

If I were the boss of Feral (Mr Feral himself. James P. Feral, esq, whatever) I would start here: http://store.steampowered.com/stats/ and port anything that hadn't already been done in the "Top games by current player count" list.


Um...

But then we wouldn't make any money because everyone already owns those games and probably won't buy them again... and I'd ruin the whole business... which might go some way towards explaining why I am not the boss of Feral...

Never mind.
