Electronic Arts At Ubuntu Summit; Linux Games Coming?

[YaPeL]

Didn't they tell they have like 14 games running on wine? maybe they'll bring those.

"Ea: Ubuntu is quite a viable platform for gaming, but, uhh umm, we won't be releasing anything for it, we are just saying"

ummm

I'll be back for a curtain call later this year wrt Steam on Linux (again).

Ah, thanks. Still a tiny shred of hope then.

And...while I was faintly hopeful...it really looks like they're doing something similar to the dubious flirtation with things through Transgaming they did ages back.

According to Michael, EA's talk will take place on Wednesday.

So... EA's presentation was yesterday. What happened?

Guess they didn't announce any plans for games on Linux, since there has been no news...

YES, finally an anuall release of <random sports game>. Just what the linux desktop was missing.

How about Crysis3 and FarCry3... Those're EA titles... ;-D

[Kristian Joensen]

That would be a Valve game primarily. EA couldn't bring it to Linux even if they wanted to.

Portal 2 - 2011 game

is it actually EA games game or Valve game?

[V!NCENT]

Cool... EA...

...

... not.

They don't create games; they create interactive button clicking B-movies. *YAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWNNNNNNNNNNNN*

I don't give a fsck. Valve on the other hand has my full support.
