And an other great Humble Bundle. The Humble Double Fine Bundle (pay what you want and help charity)

Humble Bundle with Android 5

wonderful new games. Get them before it's too late...

Humble Indie Bundle 7

new bundle, wohoo :) ...

Game performance improvement for Ubuntu

Losca: Game performance improvement for Ubuntu available for testing

good that this issue is finally/soon resolved. Still waiting for my Steam beta invite. ... but not in a hurry, rather want things to work out of the box. I guess much more stuff like that will be introduced/fixed in the next year or so. Like how Steam pushes things there, will get easier and more straight forward to port other games.

Humble Bundle for Android 4

late, I know. But here it is. The newest humble bundle :). Still great, still drm free ...

Valve/Steam Linux Beta

[Phoronix] Apply To Be Part Of The Valve Linux Beta

Valves Linux beta, finally here. Of course it did arrive just as I wasn't anywhere near my computer.

Team Fortress 2 Is Coming To Linux

[Phoronix] Ho-Hum: Yes, Team Fortress 2 Is Coming To Linux

more good Steam games is always a good thing :). Hope the beta is still on track for this month ...

Choice: None

Right now the only reasonable choice seems to be Unity3D. Developing from Windows instead of my beloved Ubuntu Linux. Shame ... Within Unity3D things are looking good so far .. tbc.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown

Pre-purchase XCOM: Enemy Unknown on Steam

can't wait for the game's release. Looking really good so far...

Unite 2012 : Keynote - Founders & Peter Molyneux

not too bad, like the new features. Now just get that Toolchain to Linux, not just the runtime :/.

Humble Bundle for Android 3

! .. not much to say. Neat as usual ...

OpenGL performance

Faster Zombies! | Valve

Left 4 Dead 2 is running at 315 FPS on Linux. That the Linux version runs faster than the Windows version (270.6) seems a little counter-intuitive, given the greater amount of time we have spent on the Windows version.

I heard that already from different places. OpenGL seems to have a bit less of an overhead than DirectX. But then, who cares if it runnt 270 or 315 FPS. Can't see that difference anyways...

Steam Summer Sale 2012

So, I couldn't resist but had to buy lot's of games in this years Steam summer sale. Don't know when I'll play most of them, but they where just too cheap to let pass by. I bought the following games on Steam:

• Borderlands GOTY
• Magicka
• Trine 2
• Orcs Must Die + Artifacts of Power and Lost Adventures
• Metro 2033
• Costume Quest
• Stacking
• S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky
• Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition
• Sins Trinity
• Deus Ex: Human Revolution
• Dungeon Defenders
• Civ V Cradle DLC: Bundle
• Bulletstorm
• Dead Island (RoW)
• Galactic Civilizations II
• Fallout: New Vegas

all for about ~81 EUR. Would cost me now 270+ EUR on Steam. Not bad ... 

OUYA: A New Kind of Video Game Console

OUYA: A New Kind of Video Game Console by OUYA — Kickstarter

Still not too sure about this. But I can imagine that this would make a very nice retro gaming console. I'm sure emulators will find it's way onto this console. That alone would make it worth the money.

I definitely dislike the controller design. Too straigt, don't thing that feels good. But maybe I'm just too fastidious by the well designed Nintendo controllers. Ah, can't really decide, probably I'm just gonna buy it anyway ...

Linux | Valve

Linux | Valve

After years of patiently waiting it if finally official. And I'm sure Steam on Linux will be awesome. Can't wait to play my first round of Left 4 Dead 2 on linux. Exciting news indeed ...

The game that can give you 10 extra years of life

good talk ..
