ROOT, A Cyber Espionage Themed Stealth FPS Coming To Linux This November

On the first look: SUPERHOT + Hotline Miami + Thief

Batman: Arkham Knight Will Be Available On Linux And SteamOS In Spring 2016
29 October 2015 at 9:19 am UTC

Quoting: Keizgon
Quoting: maodzedunI hope they port the previous games as well - Arkham City is effing amazing.

Which makes me wonder why they (Feral and Aspyr haven't ported their Mac catalog over?

Though, I'm not complaining. They're doing pretty well as is with newer titles.
Porting their Mac catalogue to Linux would require refreshing (extending to Linux) the deal with the original publisher and putting some extra work into it. My guess is that releasing a new game for both Mac and Linux is usually just more profitable than doing it for Linux only. And they have limited recources considered Steam Machines being around the corner etc.

I really would like this game to not suck, but it looks like it needs an extra year or two of development before it would hit the shelves. And not for this price.

Buying Linux Games From Cheap Bundle Websites & Stores, Some Important Information
13 October 2015 at 9:15 am UTC

Wasn't there that other factor deciding if the game counts as a Linux purchase? The platform you will use the most to play the game for 2 weeks after the purchase? Surely BundleStars won't be able to track that, but Steam, and thus the publisher, will.

Valve Is Trolling Us With A New Half-Life 3 Leak

Quoting: liamdawe
Quoting: Vash63
Quoting: LukeNukemMan, I hope to hell that it becomes a Linux exclusive. That would seriously get a lot of knickers in twists.

You can give up that hope. Valve doesn't do exclusives. They've stated specifically when asked about Steamboxes that they don't plan to ever have a Steambox exclusive, they want their games on all supported platforms.

Which is a reason I respect them, exclusives are the devil.
Linux is all about freedom. So I don't think that making a real exclusive would be a good thing for anyone.

But if we start to fantasize: what if HL3 would be a SteamOS exclusive FOR A MONTH, then it would be available on the other platforms? :D

No worries, current OSX version coexists with Windows in multiplayer :)

Native Linux version means no more Wine for me :D
