SteamBoy Aims To Be A Handheld Steam Machine
By stss, 17 June 2014 at 2:32 am UTC

Quoting: NyamiouIt is fake, but it doesn't mean this is impossible.
Was just about to say something like that.

Since manufacturing is basically up to whatever companies want to do I'd almost be surprised if something like this doesn't surface eventually.
and that's something that might attract a lot of the people who feel they just have no need for a steam machine.

I think it would even get me to start buying a larger variety of game types too

The Linux client is already working, it was playable there (just not by general public) -- they don't have any GUI for the launcher yet, which is holding them back.

Ironically, I was talking to my Dad about this yesterday (he's in the video).

Quoting: HamishPersonally I would be more interested in some of their older titles than most of the new ones, although I doubt we will ever see an Aspyr release outside of Steam.

I'll be waiting for a Humble Aspyr Bundle. :S:

This isn't an MMO, it's a shooter with a progression model and planes/tanks instead of tactical dudes.

Honestly, this is the game I have been spending unhealthy amounts of time in over the course of last year (I own almost all the planes available in the game including like half of the premium ones and already got a top tier tank) and while I heard about this earlier, it definitely made me really happy.

If you wanna give it a try right now, go ahead, as mentioned, it has an openGL renderer so it runs like a charm under Wine, but having a Linux native version will be great, partially because it will make recording videos and such even easier and hopefully run even better.

i have played that game quite a while with wine.
it has opengl rendering so it runs pretty good.. but native would be perfect really.
i love it more than star conflict, because of having both air and land combat at the same time.. epic battles.

I have this game on the windows machine. It's fun, beautifull graphics and lots of planes. although I prefer star conflict.
You must destroy all the planes of the other team, or destroy all the ground targets. When you are out of planes you have to wait to the end of the match (If I remember). There are a little variation of weapons, machine-gun, cannon, rockets (only go straight forward), and bombs (few).
It has been some time since I played, but they said it will be ground and sea battles. I don't know how it works.
It's a good addition to the linux collection.

Age Of Wonders III Strategy Game Confirmed For Linux
By Pinguino, 16 June 2014 at 5:49 pm UTC

Quoting: GuestI’m wondering if Civ 5 is any good. But there’s no demo and it’s too expensive to buy it just to try.

There's a Civ V demo for windows on Steam, which I guess you can run through Wine as well as the full game itself.

Quoting: HamtarotaroIt is a FAKE please, check multiple sources, check the whois of the "official" website.

Check, check and recheck.

Even Forbes was fooled, Kotaku and many more, thats depressing.............

This notice being on Forbes was precicely the reason it was credible for me, now that I see... well, it's kind of disapointing

Just because it isn't commenting on by Valve doesn't mean it's fake, Valve hasn't commented on Half-Life 3.

We report on everything we can, even fun rumours like this. Deal with it people and move along.

FLASHOUT 2 Racing Game Game-play Video & Some Thoughts
By gemini, 16 June 2014 at 3:52 pm UTC

Quoting: E911I might pay 5$ for this on sale, but these tracks seem really narrow.

Running any NFS or Burnout Paradise on Wine has tragically failed leaving me carless in terms of "gaming on linux". There's a real market for good Linux Racers imo. Hopefully the Arcade 90s Racer will be done soon :(

I agree that there aren´t any good racing games on Linux at the moment. I think there is a market how ever, or will be. But hold on until Project Cars will come, it sure looks nice.
