Not every experiment of Valve's will work, and this time it's paid mods that are being killed off. They will be refunding everyone too.

In an attempt to cool things down, Gabe Newell of Valve took to reddit to answer questions and concerns from people. I throw some opinions in too.

First off, let me start by stating that the main reason I felt the need to write this review, is I have yet to run into a thorough review of a gaming mouse from a Linux user, let alone a Linux gamer. And since this is my first gaming mouse (on any OS), it felt like only a natural progression to share this experience with fellow Linux gamers.

Will these joke simulator games ever end? Who honestly is going to buy Tea Party Simulator 2015? Goat Simulator was funny, but this...

In a move that is not even remotely surprising to me, Valve has started rolling out the ability for mod authors to sell their works.

In the comments of our recent Dying Light article, a video was posted showing two Techland developers talking about their porting of Dying Light to Linux. It’s quite interesting.

Jonathan Blow, developer of the hit game Braid has mentioned during one of his coding videos if he will bring 'The Witness' to Linux or not. The answer isn't too great right now, but the future is brighter.

You would hopefully have seen my previous articles talking to multiple developers about their Linux sales, so to begin a new year we are talking to a few more about their sales.

Another bit of annoyance for Dying Light fans. Techland have release an update for Dying Light adding in workshop support for mods, and the mod tools to go along with it. The kicker is that it all needs Windows.

xoreos is a FLOSS project aiming to reimplement BioWare's Aurora engine (and derivatives), covering their games starting with Neverwinter Nights and potentially up to Dragon Age II. This post gives a short update on the current progress.

Welcome to a web page as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. This is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call... The Funding Crowd #44.

Another month, and another Steam Hardware Survey has been released. This time we have gained a little rather than lost a little.

Valve are giving away their games for free again, and this time it has been extended to include developers of the Mesa project.

I noticed a lot of activity on the Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor SteamDB entry recently, and poking Feral about it gave us another teaser, but what could it be?

The people over at GoG have started a new campaign where you have the chance to reclaim some of your old (Windows) games. Now at first this may not sound too useful for us Linux gamers, but let's be honest, not all old Windows games will ever come to Linux so Wine is often the only solution if you want to play them.

I have now spent two weeks using the open source Nouveau driver on my desktop and I have some results here. Let's see how well Nouveau did for me!

In a very recent video from Star Citizen's Chris Roberts, he outlines what's going on with the Linux version, and sadly the news right now isn't too healthy.

While we didn't get a chance to attend GDC due to it being expensive, the videos are now online for all to see. It's good to finally see a high quality video for the Vulkan presentation.

PC Gamer has a bit of a world exclusive, they managed to get the Killing Floor 2 developers in to play with them, and we have the video for you.

Minimon is an online and offline monster catching game inspired by Pokemon, and it could turn out to be a good one.
