Ill say what I said in the PC thread..

I am a Linux programmer and well I don't really like Linux.. (atleast on a public consumer side). Most of my experience is with Linux and i certainly respect Linux, but I personally don't think gaming will be as great on Linux as everyone things. I certainly agree that having multiplatfrom PC releases is good (Windows, MAC, Linux) but most people (especially the ones that have not contributed to the Linux community and therefore doesn't see the issues with the linux community) don't understand the issues of gaming on Linux.

lol linux

 

I don't think linux would be all that bad if 99% of the software wasn't garbage openware packages. Also since Canonical wants to make their own window manager I can' see a new standard helping developers any.

there are a lot of perks to using linux.  Most of which doesn't matter to the general consumer.

its free, thats the only perk i've noticed, I've worked with linux servers, programming on linux, and embedded linux... the one thing i've found its always easier setting up servers on windows, windows programming and windows compact embedded, The tools microsoft provide are easily better, the professional tools that can be purchased on windows are far better than whats on linux, and windows compact embedded not only ships with nicer tools its a lot simpler of a system to set up and configure.

Dude,doesn´t ubuntu alone have around 12 muillion users? And that´s only one of several linux versions,didn´t fedora had like 4.5 million repository connections? At least the rough estimate on the linux counter is of 66 million linux users.

Look, Homie G, I know you are ignorant as can be, but hear me out, then I'll listen to you plea. Linux is everywhere these days. Your friends use it. Your neighbours use it. Your colleagues use it. You probably use it too. Inform yourself next time and step out of the past and into the future.

I think Linux is a viable gaming platform. The PC is an open platform, might as well have an free and open OS too.

When one distro alone has 4 800 times the number of users you think all of Linux has, your credibility is down the drain. Plus, do you really think Valve, Crytek, and a throng of indies would develop for Linux if it only had 2 500 users?

What do you mean? The PC has Linux, Mac OS, and Windows. That has always been the case. In what sense has the PC been lumped in with consoles? This is System Wars, not Console Wars, so it certainly has a place if you mean that.

2500 is the reason most devs don't even bother with poor linux. :(
