BY Ekianjo December 30, 2018 4 Comments

Gaming with an eGPU? Is it Worth it?

BY Ekianjo December 27, 2018 7 Comments

Proton Is Getting Electric

BY Ekianjo December 26, 2018 4 Comments

The real Santa this year is Valve and Co. To be honest they have spoiled us so much since Q3 2018 with Proton that it’s almost like we were on a never-ending Christmas since then. In December they doubled down… Continue Reading →

Feral & VP: New Ports Upcoming. For How Long?

BY Ekianjo December 16, 2018 7 Comments

Time to catch up with some news. Feral has unveiled very recently that they are working to port two major AAA titles to Linux (and Mac I guess…). One thing to note, none of them is frankly surprising. I would… Continue Reading →

Metal Gear Solid V on Proton

BY Ekianjo November 17, 2018 3 Comments

Following my (controversial?) article of the other day on MGSV, that I mostly played on Lutris/DXVK, I decided to go ahead and install it “normally” from the native Linux Steam client. And as expected, it works very well, without the… Continue Reading →

BY Ekianjo November 15, 2018 1 Comment

I don’t think anybody expected that the Steam Play/Proton initiative would grow that fast. Yet it’s happening. Just 2 days ago, Valve has updated their Steam Play White-List package, and here’s what new games (39!) are part of the pack… Continue Reading →

MGS V: (dx)V(k) Has Come To

BY Ekianjo November 14, 2018 3 Comments

After Witcher3, I decided to experiment again with DXVK. I took another game that I had begun on Windows but had never dared to complete it until now, because I have come to loathe dual booting. At the time I… Continue Reading →

PODCAST #10: James Ramey (Codeweavers) on Steam Play/Proton

BY Ekianjo November 13, 2018 Leave a Comment

Not too long after the Steam Play/Proton project came to light, I contacted James Ramey from Codeweavers (main developers behind the WINE project) to get the underlying story between Valve and Codeweavers. After all, most of Proton depends on the core… Continue Reading →

INSIDE: A Trip in Darkness

BY Ekianjo November 9, 2018 Leave a Comment

INSIDE. Inside what, exactly? That’s the pitch of the game. To discover the meaning of it all! INSIDE is the last creation from the developers behind Limbo (which ended up getting a Linux client, ported by Ryan Gordon). And honestly… Continue Reading →

A Quick Proton Round-up

BY Ekianjo October 29, 2018 Leave a Comment

There’s still as much activity as ever regarding Steam Play/Proton, it’s time to list up a few of the latest good stuff that we can hear about these days. First, Soul Calibur VI was released just about a week ago… Continue Reading →
