What was that, Liam? I can't hear you over my [URL='http://i.minus.com/iDA0tBsABV6VQ.png']Steam[/URL]. :D

All that aside, I won't to play TF2 natively!

Seems you may be able to try and play/download games without being in the beta. Install the Steam client, go to the steam website, go to a Lnux game you own, and hit the play button and tell it to launch! Can't see if it actually downloads the Linux version right now (at work), but it might!

Liam: That sucks :(

Annoyed a bit about the controls though, anyone got any idea whether it works the same way on a Mac (the controls on the right even though they should be on the left)?

I thought there'd be nice integration at least. Although there is indicator support.

Funny, the search is still missing some games, like Killing Floor and Red Orchestra, which are in the CDR.

Either way, they finally got Bit Blot to release Aquaria for Linux (and maybe Mac) there, they never released it anywhere after the bundle. Finally.

Quoting: "Larian, post: 6140"That's not what I would call "going live", but thanks for the news anyway.


The closed beta is going live that's more what i meant since we have been covering that fact for a while. Arguments over the title aside...good find Kame will add it to the post.

Looks like Linux has been added as an OS choice on the steam website for searches!

Closed beta first.

Quoting: "Larian, post: 6136"Is this referring to the live client or the closed public beta? I was under the impression Valve was going to do the beta first. Has that happened already?

I am more than ready ! My first purchase will be Portal, since I never tried it and I saw nice videocasts of it.
As a side note, Steam for Linux coming this month made me finally decide to get rid of my Microsoft Windows partition. More room for Ubuntu 12.10, for documents and for games !

Will it be more akin to modern mainstream corridor shooters or will it have more expansive and intricate environments?

Is it selfish of me to want them to delay the release? I still have to do some things this week!

What are the plans beyond release? Free DLC, paid DLC, or actual proper expansions (think Shadow of the Death for Heroes III or Bloodmoon/Tribunal for Morrowind, that kind of stuff)?

Will there be any DRM?
Single player?
Do developers have a dream of making other game and what would it be? Any plans after this game?(i know, i know, this game is in Alpha stage or smth, but we all can dream, right?)
