Gute Sache, ich hatte zwar noch nie Probleme, aber ich habe von Leuten gehört, die Eador: Genesis nicht auf ihren Computer spielen konnten. Bisher war die einzige Möglichkeit zum Testen eine Raubkopie zu finden, und auch da konnte man sich dann nicht sicher sein ob es an der Kopie lag oder am Spiel

Ich habe noch nie etwas von Curse.com gehört und selbst wenn ich mir die Seite ansehe weiß ich immer noch nicht genau worum es geht. Ich schätze mal für irgendjemanden muss das eine gute Sache sein.
 
Curse ist ein bisschen eine Gaming Culture Company. Sie produzieren selber keine Videospiele, aber produzieren vieles drumherum. Zusatzsoftware, Guides, Community, T-Shirts und andere Fanware, etc. Am bekanntesten sind sie mir als Sponsor des LoL Esport Teams. Sie sind schon 3-4 Jahre dabei bei LoL und ich würde sie als zuverlässig dabei betrachten.
 
Linux Support für Ubuntu und Mint angekündigt
Good news!

http://www.gog.com/wishlist/site#search=linuxNo, don't duck. This is actually good news. We just wanted to announce that, after much deliberation, we've decided that one of the next steps for us is to support Linux. Now, we're not ready to launch Linux games on GOG.com just yet. We've only been working on bringing these Linux games to our service for a few months, and there's lots more to go, but we wanted to let you know what's going to be coming this fall to a digital distributor near you.

We're initially going to be launching our Linux support on GOG.com with the full GOG.com treatment for Ubuntu and Mint. That means that right now, we're hammering away at testing games on a variety of configurations, training up our teams on Linux-speak, and generally getting geared up for a big kick-off in the fall with at least 100 Linux games ready for you to play. This is, of course, going to include games that we sell which already have Linux clients, but we'll also be bringing Linux gamers a variety of classics that are, for the first time, officially supported and maintained by a storefront like ours.

This is, as we mentioned, something that we're in the early stages of, so we can't talk about what games will be a part of our GOG.com on Linux gaming launch--in part because we, ourselves, don't know what those games are--but we hope that you're excited about the fact that we're able to set "GOG.com Support for Linux" in our community wishlist as a task that is "In Progress." We know we are!

GOG unterstützt jetzt offiziell Linux. Für Ubuntu und Mint gibt es DEB Installer, für andere Distributionen gibt es Tarballs.
GOG.com Now Supports Linux!

50 games for the free OS available right NOW!

http://www.gog.com/promo/linux_launch_promo_240714A while ago, we've announced our plans to add Linux support as one of the features of our digital platform, with 100 games on the launch day sometime this fall. We've put much time and effort into this project and now we've found ourselves with over 50 titles, classic and new, prepared for distribution, site infrastructure ready, support team trained and standing by, and absolutely no reason to wait until October or November. We're still aiming to have at least 100 Linux games in the coming months, but we've decided not to delay the launch just for the sake of having a nice-looking number to show off to the press. It's not about them, after all, it's about you. So, one of the most popular site feature requests on our community wishlist is granted today: Linux support has officially arrived on GOG.com!

The first 50+ titles we've have in store for you come from all the corners of our DRM-Free catalog. Note that we've got many classic titles coming officially to Linux for the very first time, thanks to the custom builds prepared by our dedicated team of penguin tamers. That's over twenty fan-favorite GOG.com classics, like FlatOut&Flatout 2, , <a href="http://www.gog.com/game/darklands">Darklands, or Realms of the Haunting we've personally ushered one by one into the welcoming embrace of Linux gamers. That's already quite a nice chunk of our back-catalog, and you can expect more from our dedicated Linux team soon!

Now, for the recent titles. We've got some indie games with native Linux versions that finally find their well-deserved spot in our store. Among them, debuting on Linux, CLARC - a well received original comedic Sci-Fi puzzler. On top of that, be on the lookout for two new additions to the GOG.com catalog: Gods Will Be Watching (coming in a couple of hours) and Unrest:Special Edition (Linux build coming right up!), both of them very fresh and intriguing. This is the very first time we can provide you with all the PC versions of a premiere game, and we will continue to do so in the future. If there's a Linux version of a title we're releasing, our aim is to deliver it to you Day-1. But enough about us, let's talk about the games. Here's what you can be playing on Linux today:

As if this wasn't exciting enough, we've put more than half of these titles on a special promo! Head out to the promo page and find out which of them you can get up to 75% off until Tuesday, 9:59AM GMT. Of course, all of the games from the list above that you already own will be updated with Linux versions with no additional cost for you, just as you might have expected from GOG.com.

"OK, but how will Linux support actually work on GOG.com" - you might ask. For both native Linux versions, as well as special builds prepared by our team, GOG.com will provide distro-independent tar.gz archives and support convenient DEB installers for the two most popular Linux distributions: Ubuntu and Mint, in their current and future LTS editions. Helpful and responsive customer support has always been an important part of the GOG.com gaming experience. We wouldn't have it any other way when it comes to Linux, and starting today our helpdesk offers support for our official Linux releases on Ubuntu and Mint systems.

Diversity and freedom of choice have always been an important part of the GOG.com way. We're very glad that we could improve our service with the addition of the free (and DRM-Free) alternative to the commercial operating systems. Talking with gamers is just as important, so we're counting on your feedback! If you've got any questions, suggestions, or run into any trouble, just tell us in the forum thread below this post. Just please be gentle, this is our very first time with Linux. Happy launch day, everyone!

Sehr schön, sehr schön :)
Gerade durch das wegfallen des DRM könnte gog zum Standarddistributor unter Linux in den nächsten Jahren werden.
 
Dann müsste der GOG Downloader aber auch open source sein und dürfte keine GUI haben :ugly:
 
Ich hab' auch zwei Keys, wer den zweiten will kann mich anPMen. (ja, das ist jetzt ein Wort)
