The lie:  UT3 for Linux will ship on the disc with the Windows version.

(game is released)

The damned lie:  The UT3 client for Linux will be available as downloadable content sometime after the game ships.  (This still gave Linux users a reason to buy the game - as it contains the data files needed for use with the download.)

(baby new year grows old, dies in regret)

The statistic:  Epic Games claims they're "still working on it", TWO YEARS LATER (next month).

This shows exactly how much Epic value the Linux customer, and the catch-22 that Linux is stuck in when it comes to gaming.  It appears they actually did do the port, and even showed it to us over a year ago, but just won't release it for some bizarre reason.

 

 

"Epic Failure" was never so appropriate until now.

People read the stupidest things.  Like this sig, for instance.
