I'm interested, I'd be eager to see if my computer can handle this or if I can use this as an excuse to upgrade my 8 year old machine!

X3:Reunion now working on Steam for Linux!
By Liam Dawe, 26 January 2013 at 10:38 am UTC

Quoting: linuxeri bought it from lgp - i wonder if i can add it to steam somehow
I doubt it since egosoft would have probably nothing to do with LGP orders. Might be worth at least asking them though.

Hero-U: rogue to redemption
By Bumadar, 26 January 2013 at 7:30 am UTC

latest news make me go a bit hmmmmmm

QuoteTwo of our team members have decided to reduce their involvement in the project for personal and financial reasons. Because we barely scraped by with $9,000 over our minimum goal, we were not able to pay for full-time work to any of our contractors. In fact, my current projections show Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption running at a $50,000 loss, mostly because I underestimated the cost of fulfilling all of the premiums. This includes the art time needed to customize Yearbook pictures, paintings, and statues, so that's good for the artists. But we also need to get all the game art assets, so the premium reward art is an additional expense to the project as a whole.

As a result, all of our team members are working on other projects simultaneously with Hero-U. Andrew Goulding and Eriq Chang have full-time commitments on other projects, and decided that 60-hour weeks before we even start Crunch Mode are more than they can handle. They will continue to work on specific pieces of Hero-U, but will not take part in the main development effort. Andrew is graciously allowing us to continue using his MacGuffin's Curse engine under the Hero-U code, so we still have that strong head start on development.

only 9k over the 400k..... that remark makes me wonder.....

Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood price drop!

I bought the Windows version of this game many years ago. I had no idea that it had a Linux client. I'll have to look at finishing it someday.

Half-Life 1 coming to Linux!
By Bumadar, 25 January 2013 at 7:42 am UTC

ha, that made me dig up the old CD and enter the code, never did that for half life 1, back when it was released I did not see the reason as steam was just for online stuff and having a crrrrr-beeep-crrrr modem that was way to expensive.  old code did work fine just now :)

If you opt in the beta test in the Counter Strike properties, you'll be able to install Counter Strike 1 point fucking 6 on Linux. Natively. Pretty much what I've been waiting for for literally 6 years.

cstrike.so and bshift.so are in the files, so they are already compiling on Linux at the least.

This could easily pave way for stuff like Counter Strike to come too ;)

Holy cowboys.

This is gonna be epic, HL1 @ 300fps :D. But for all seriussness, hl1 is shit once you've played black mesa..
Still good to see all the valve game's coming over.

Two Tribes Are Hunting For Linux Interest
By KIAaze, 24 January 2013 at 9:37 pm UTC

QuoteWhat do you think? Would you be keen to see their games on Linux?
Having missed the "Humble Bundle for Android 1" with "Toki Tori" and "Edge", I would like them to make it available somewhere else. On their website, Desura, Gamolith, Steam, somewhere!
("Edge" I got in one of the later bundles it seems)

So, yes, I would be keen to see their games available on GNU/Linux, but it would be nice if I could try the already ported games first!

It's not even available on this page somebody posted on reddit: http://calvein.github.com/humble-games/

QuoteIs Twitter an effective way for developers to reach out and gauge interest from Linux gamers?
Not for me, as I do not use Twitter. I do have an identi.ca account, but even that I don't really use much.
Therefore, just posted on their website instead: http://twotribes.com/message/toki-tori-2
