Steam and Source for Linux Confirmed

I love Gabe

By Judo 1 year ago

Information here.

To summarize, Steam and Source are coming natively to Linux with a demonstration of L4D2 in the linked article. Unfortunately, it isn't ready for release yet.

So yeah, Steam, Source, and Valve's popular titles are coming to Linux soon.

    I hope this encourages other developers. Especially with Windows 8 looking like it's going to screw over desktop users somewhat. A ton of people use Windows mainly because they play games on their desktop and if Windows 8 is apparently so bad then maybe we'll see Linux becoming more popular (I hope so).

    That somewhat is a huge understatement.

    The best part is the article points out Gaben dislikes Windows 8, too. :3

    I'm not really sure if you realize how many people actually use Linux.
