Thanks To Valve, More Than 1,500 Games Are Now On Linux

Posted by timothy on from the snowball-rolling dept.

An anonymous reader writes: The Steam Store crossed the threshold this morning of having 1,500 games natively available for Linux. Timberman, a 0.99$ video game was the 1,500th title, but while there are a lot of indie games available for Linux, in the past three years have been a number of high profile AAA Linux games too. What games (old or new, free or paid) would you like to see available for Linux systems?

    99% of these games are shit - but so is 99% of everything

    Actually, I think the most important games to get to run on Linux are games that are popular with the general gaming population. Videos games are parts of 21st century general culture. Being able to access (play) them would be a good step forward.

    Of course, I'd love some weirder, less common games to be available as well.
