I do realize not everyone is 100% honest as the day is long. However I was speaking with someone on Facebook claiming to be a fresh hire of an upcoming online game company. He is the community manager for something called "The Possessed". I tried to pump him for more information but he clammed up and said the official disclosure of this project is months down the road. The only reason he told me anything was we were discussing Linux OS and he was asking my opinion... he was pumping me about which distro I thought was best and why I was into Linux over Windows. Then he explained about this game being programmed and released on Linux OS and then later ported to Windows.
I don't know, sounds very weird to have a major release to Linux first and then go Windows. I don't know much about the gaming industry, but I think that was how they made Portal and Half Life?? I know the game is still in pre alpha. I tried doing a search and nothing is popping up. I sure hope he is telling me the honest truth, because it would be nice for once to have all the Windows users wait for us to get first shot at the game. I will keep you posted on this, if anything other than rumors develop.
