Despite nonexistent price tag and ever greater ease of use, Linux has still not passed through to ordinary gamer. However, a blockbuster is all that is required to sell in the free operating system on a broad front, it says Lars Gustavsson on Dice to Polygon.
– For the first Xbox, it took a Halo to lift, says Gustavsson. Usually about a “killer app” or a blockbuster, then people are more than willing to embrace it. It is not difficult to get started with Linux, it’s just one game that motivates you to go that way.

That one of those games pop up what suffering there is decent chances after that Valve recently announced SteamOS (based on Linux), Steam Machines and Steam Controller, three products intended to Steam and PC gaming into the living room. Half-Life 3 would be equal to the task. Perhaps also Battlefield 4, it would find to be released to the Linux directly or appear to SteamOS. But it is not yet officially up to date.
In the same interview, Lars Gustavsson about the difficulty of finding the balance between making Battlefield games available for beginners without making the experience too simple for veterans. And the difficult thing is not to get too hardcore.
– Frankly, our problem is not remembering hardcore players, he says. It is rather that we are so many people who worked with Battlefield since 1999 or 2000 that we must prevent ourselves from getting too hardcore, we must constantly suppress us. Hardcore is our natural motivator. We must remind ourselves that make the game for everyone.
How big explosion becomes of Battlefield 4 on the PC, 360 and PS3 labeled on October 29. More bangs gets it when it pops up to PS4 and Xbox One, 29 November or next year.
