This may be a shot in the arm for Linux gaming.

Already have it here: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Savage..._Tortured_Soul
But it nice they confirm it officially.

yeah i just saw that today. Definately buying it, if i don't pre-order it. Even if I don't play it much (which I am sure I will) It is more than worth it to support a compnay that actively tries to support linux out of the box. Heck changing their whole engine from directx to opengl just so we can run it natively.
My hat is off to them

I don't know wheather my hat is off, but it's definatly tipped. They said they won't be doing much testing, so that's gonna blow balls, we'll get a buggy game on linux. Did they ever mention why the hell they used directX instead of openGL in the first place?
