Quoting: UnshraI really hope that Mars = DOOM. I as want to play DOOM and have been fighting the urge to purchase it for Windows as I feel it is ripe for porting over to Linux and Mac OS.

Don't bother. Their DRM implementation breaks it on Wine :(

Quoting: SamsaiJust for when reality starts hitting your face and disappointment starts kicking in hard, keep in mind that Project Brutality is still a thing and it's a quite wonderful thing indeed if you can just get an engine to run it properly.

GZDoom is running it just fine for me.

The game is pretty amazing already. Rock solid Linux version and a very decent tutorial mode for this type of game (unlike Beyond Earth, ughh)!
My first game ended up being a 17-20 hour (my memory and Steam don't agree on this) play session. I'm scared to start the game again :P

Quoting: STiATI hope the studios / publishers will stop going after reimplementation of engines for playing the games in linux requireing the original copy (since we need to pay for it anyway).

Happened with the guys reimplementing vampires: bloodlines (Project Vaulderie? Seem to have forgotten..)

Looks promising though, taking a few minutes browsing the source I didn't really think they would be able to render properly yet...

Well, they went after them after they started importing and improving character models and redesigning levels in Unity, which is something I would have loved, but it's certainly different than using the original data files.
CCP did go somewhat overboard with their cease and desist letter though: "Specifically, please remove all references to Vampire: The Masquerade and Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines from your website, software, and related materials."

Quoting: xuwangDoes the steam controller work well for this one? I have two steam controllers and am looking for good local coop games.

Last I tried it worked (months ago), but I remember having to set up my own mappings. I'll give it a go now and let you know if it's improved :)

EDIT: Yup, still no native support, but it works reasonably well with the community mapping.

Also, apart from the only 11 titles show in Europe, it's down to just 6 in Big Picture Mode for some reason.
