Have you purchased a Linux game lately?

Verdun Beta. Seems pretty cool.

If you want to be satisfied then do not have high hopes for amnesia AMFP. And if you want a real horror game on your linux machine then go and buy amnesia the dark descent instead. If you want to see the real score between these games go and check out metacritic USERS score for both titles. that will paint the picture clear.

I have both btw.

No probs, I'll consider that on next payday.

Shortlist for next payday...
1) Book of Unwritten Tales
2) Bards Tale
3) Amnesia - TDD
4) Gone Home
5) Strike Suit Zero

Bards Tale is available on the newest Humble Bundle (Android 7); and its an EXCELLENT game!

Been leaning towards games that support linux since the first neverwinter nights (still hoping they do a client for the new MMO)

I bought "World of Goo" recently on sale for $0.99 on Steam running Debian Jessie/Sid. It's a physics/puzzle game where you build obstacles using goo balls to the exit pipe. It runs perfectly on my older Dell Inspiron 1300 2.0 Ghz laptop.

I just picked up PainKiller: Hell and Damnation but haven't played it yet. Looks pretty cool!

Make sure, when you start Painkiller, that you aim your reticle at the three red lights. They'll go out, and you can then move and shoot...

Been playing through Amnesia - AMFP and have been quite impressed with the game design and the story so far! The game will surely be a memorable one! I don't think I'll be looking at bacon and salami the same way again!
Just bought Strike Suit Zero which was on sale for $5. Not sure what to expect from it but hopefully it delivers something good and different!
Also have The Bard's Tale waiting for me. I think I'll be playing that next once I'm done with Amnesia AMFP.

Linux native gaming is getting better by the month! Looking forward to what the new year brings especially once Steam Machines go mainstream!
