Every day we have news about the world Linux and now another one related to high-quality games falls on us again, now the news is that nothing more and nothing less than Electronic Arts will be presented in the Ubuntu Developers Summit with a 15 minute talk and leaving representatives throughout the event.
And it is not necessary to think too much about what this can mean, that the largest game development company in the world sends representatives not only to attend but to participate in an event like this, it means a lot about the future of games and everything. what does it imply in Linux, everything begins to look closer and closer ...
The information comes from event calendar and a Tweet of the already recognized archi Michael Larabel...
Apparently since Valve made official the arrival of Steam a GNU / Linux And with all the commotion that the news has made, many greats begin to take an interest in us and in this environment, and without having arrived, apparently (and only apparently) the implications of the whole matter are beginning to be seen.
I have been brief but is this another indication of the promising future of Linux?
Source: Very linux
Excellent news that makes you happy and I hope there will be very good news like this for GNU / Linux 🙂
This is getting very interesting, I see promising the future of Linux as a platform suitable for gaming.
Develop games in openGL.
Hurray!
I certainly don't know why game developers work with directx when the only thing that uses it is windows and the xbox, while the rest of the platforms (which are mostly) work with opengl such as: Ps3, PsVita, MacOsx, Smartphones, Even windows supports opengl very well so I don't know what the fuck is going on with these people: S
This article talks about some of that:

I had already read about that project and that is why I said the above (I am GriLL)
Undoubtedly great news and we must also be glad that we will have better linux drivers and opengl improvements. Undoubtedly something good can come from all this, although I think (I hope I am wrong) that this is not going to be in the short term.
crysis XD
Dead Space in Linux. uhhhh
Command & Conquer.
I also hope bethesa.
I see it that it is more popular for Android than for Linux, but it would be great if there were more native opengl games that are easy to run on several multiplatforms natively, it seems to me that the purpose is to make it migrate to other systems.
If it's for android then what are the Valve guys doing porting Steam to GNU / Linux and EA at an Ubuntu Developer Summit?
Interesting news, I hope it doesn't take another 2 years to see what EA will do in linux.
IF THE LINUX GAMES COME LATER, I CHANGE TO THE UBUNTU OPERATING SYSTEM 😀 I AM INTERESTED IN THIS CURRENT VIDEO GAMES FOR LINUX: OOO
Excellent! that the main entertainment industry produces for Linux, definitely bodes well.
Nothing has been said, only that they will be there ... they did not say that they would produce for Linux.
But if they will be there it is for something, right?
If AMD and Nvidia improve their drivers with this, that's fine with me 🙂
Good…. Need for Speed on my Debian…. sounds great doesn't it?
No, the truth is no
(Hahaha)
It seems that we can already get an idea of what EA will do in the Ubuntu DS
Apparently they are going to promote "Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances" and "Lord of Ultima" from the Ubuntu software center (2 video games for web browser).
