Black Mesa was a really enjoyable Linux Drama for the month.

It had it all - a Anti-Linux Microsoft Troll. Drama. And a Developer shooting down said Troll.

It was fab, and sweetly delicious. Plus seeing a top 10 Steam Summer Sale game get confirmed is pretty damn hawt. I'm glad the developer locked the thread to freeze the state of things.

In a few months we can check in and ask them how it's cooking.

The graphics made me cautious to the price at first and after beating it I think it could easily sell for $20-30 if players knew ahead the contents of how awesome it is.

Quoting: Mountain Man

Quoting: ElectricPrismSomehow I just take this as Microsoft porting to covertly try to collect data about Steam Console users.

It's not the first Microsoft game to come to Linux. Dust: An Elysian Tail is also a Microsoft title. It was a very strange feeling to boot up a native Linux game and see the Microsoft logo.

Let the irony flow, I would laugh when Halo Online starts to run on wine.

Performance Reporting? Does that mean profiling has been improved?

If so, that will be tremendous for debugging and optimizing unity games on Linux if so.

OP Tim is correct - Apple sabotages Windows by making iTunes a bloated piece of shit that makes windows crawl on its knees - it's not hard to look good and act superior when you sabotage the competition.

Microsoft wants to crown itself king and will do everything possible to force XBONE and their ideology and way of doing things - this is the same as apple though.

No surprise I can't support either, and while every system has its flaws or cave-outs, at least on Linux if Developer-X makes a bad choice the project is forked to save the users from the bad choice,

eg - OpenOffice -> LibreOffice,

Or for some but not me, they prefer Mate over Gnome 3.

In Windows or Mac world they make a bad decision you're screwed, your files are in their cloud, you can't turn off updates, your PC bricked because of mandatory Windows 10 update? Too bad.

Microsoft: What excuse can we have for ripping Minecraft away from Linux users?

Developer: Well we can create a new launcher

Microsoft: Genius, we'll say Linux isn't big enough to justify why our new version won't work on it

Developer: No one will suspect a thing sir.

Microsoft: You're earned your pay, enjoy a $20,000 Xmas bonus

Microsoft: hA Ha Ha HHaaaa Haaa Ha ha Ha
