A Place for Linux Gamers

With gaming on Linux having grown exponentially since the early 2010s, things are better than ever for the Linux desktop. Gaming has not only taken off, but WINE is stronger than ever, and the Steam Deck has made portable, Linux-powered gaming a reality.

The versatility of Linux can breathe new life into older, aging hardware or keep your new beastly CPUs and GPUs feeling extra powerful by running some games at near parity with Windows - sometimes even faster and smoother due to a more lightweight desktop experience.

Whether you use Fedora, Solus, Ubuntu, Arch, or any other distro out there, there's a spot for you here. Please join us!

STEAM FOR LINUX BETA: APPLICATION ACCEPTED

29 November, 2012 - T3RR0RH4WK | 1 Comments

I got an invite to the closed beta. I'm gonna try testing not only the client but the available games on as many distros and DEs that I can. I'll obviously start with my main build -- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS x64 + GNOME 3.x but I'll test with Unity, KDE, XFCE, and LXDE once I get it all set up.

I probably won't try it out on Arch or Fedora but if I get the chance then I might. That's up in the air as of now.

Anyone else get invites recently?

VALVE LINUX BLOG POST #4 -- The Great Winter Migration!

17 November, 2012 - T3RR0RH4WK | 0 Comments

Valve's Linux developers have been talking about how well the closed beta period of the cycle is going. So far so good seems to be the general status as of late.

In the post, they talk about ramping up the efforts soon and sending out more beta invites to more accounts. Those who attended Canonical's Ubuntu Developer Summit this year will likely get theirs first, but more people over a better period of time will be invited as well. Soon enough, we'll have ourselves an open beta and then a full stress test before it goes to stable status and launches.

I can't wait.
