Looks like 'Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive' may be coming to Linux
5 July 2018 at 4:29 am UTC
FWIW, those worked quite well in WINE (along with Telltale's Tales of Monkey Island) when I played them a few years ago.

Quoting: EikeAnybody knows if there's a chance for the Monkey Island 1 & 2 remasters?

That guy sure gets around! (in a good way; I always see his name associated with highly reviewed games)

Quoting: KeyrockI have high hopes for this game, as it has Chris Avellone as its narrative designer.

I seem to recall when account creation first started, but I tend to lurk a long time without creating accounts, lol! Thanks Liam for sticking around, and only quitting for short periods both times. :)
The Steam Linux market share for June was 0.52% as Steam is still growing rather rapidly

I have "dual-booted" Linux, DOS, and OS/2, but the only version of Windows I have had installed on my computers was Windows 3.1, over 20 years ago. My extensive "backlog of shame" covers stacks of DOS games, PS2, PS3, PS4, and even a handful of Wii games. Whenever someone asks me "why not install Windows so you get more games," I have to mention the huge stacks of games I will probably never get to... :-p

Quoting: wolfyrionI am using Linux for work and other things as well but I dont think I will ever dualboot
I have a PS4 just to play AAA Titles (if I ever have time) that I cant play on Linux.
(Imagine that I have Resident Evil 7 , God of War,Monster Hunter,Shadow of the Colossus + so many other AAA tittles and I havent played anything so far)

Steam Summer Sale is up, free game from Humble Store & Fanatical sale too
22 June 2018 at 6:06 am UTC
I thought I got it cheap when it was $15; crazy! I guess they are shifting focus to software versions of it, like the Android and (rejected by Apphole) iOS versions.

Quoting: NovenTheHeroYou can get a Steam Link for $2.50. Insane.

The shoot 'em up 'Super Galaxy Squadron EX Turbo' is now available on Linux
21 June 2018 at 5:19 pm UTC
I think that's more about recently purchased and/or played. Maybe recently updated gets sorted in there also; not sure?

Quoting: GuestDon't they appear when you filter "recent" games?

The only method I've heard of is as described by Suppen - create a "Win-only" category, put all those games in it, and if that category starts showing when you are filtering to Linux games, then surprise! You have a new playable game.

Quoting: GuestSpeaking of which, is there a way to keep track of Win-only games in one's library that suddenly become available on Linux ?

Humble's 2K Build-Your-Own-Bundle has some good Linux games
15 June 2018 at 5:11 am UTC
The Humble Store has had "build your own bundles" with extra discounts many times in the past, long before IGN. Pretty sure I got a bunch of Daedalic and/or Telltale (run great in Wine) games from a previous sale.
Like others, I've got most of the (available for Linux) 2K titles already, but this is great for those who don't.

Quoting: dosHumble post-IGN acquisition started to look and behave like dozens of other bundle sites.

A look at what's currently on sale and good for Linux gamers
8 June 2018 at 5:58 am UTC
74% off... I bought it there a few days ago. It says "PC/Mac" but it's a Steam key, and there's no third party publisher in this case losing out.

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLWe can also buy DL on GamesRepublic.
