It’s often said by Windows users that the reason they don’t want to use Linux is because it has no games, this isn’t true, since Steam launched on Linux over 1,000 games have arrived on the platform. At the end of July something happened which, if you keep your fingers crossed, may start trending in future.

On March 31st the first Linux exclusive game on Steam, Don’t be Patchman, surpassed its $25,000 goal by reaching $27,625. The Habbo-esque game is currently classified as Early Access after coming to Steam on the 31st of July. If you buy it now, you get 15% kno...

Quite a stereotype that... the truth is simpler-- Windows users have been long spoilt with a dumbed-down, insecure OS, and lack of having to really know what you are doing...

If not for Linux being stuck in 80's command line style control, maybe I have switched over. How in hell do you suggest to remember thousands of lines and read obscure feedback in form wall of text and moonspeak? And besides that, I have to remember a LOT of work related data, that has nothing to do with Linux?

When was the last time you even looked at a Linux desktop? You've got choices of many different desktop environments to choose from.

Funny you say that, a lot of people prefer having things that work. Why would the average user want to use CLI when you have a GUI? There is a reason why Windows is wide spread. Your statement seems to lack understanding that people differ. You have those who build tools and those who use it. Both need the other.

Is Dying Light not AAA? Borderlands Pre-Sequel? Witcher 2?

You will see Windows and consoles become obsolete as handheld devices increase in power. If you play any game on your phone now, that is already Linux and no-one complains that Android is hard to use.
