Steam for Linux :: Introducing a new version of Steam Play

In 2010, we announced Steam Play: a way for Steam users to access Windows, Mac and Linux versions of Steam games with a single purchase. More than 3000 of the games that have been added to Steam after that point have included Linux support, with more titles being added every day. Since then, we've continued to look for ways to make more titles easily accessible to Linux users.

Finally I'm happy to play Linux over Windows just me though.

Hardly anybody cares...

Just accept it Valve, most people prefer using Windows.

"Valve made an announcement today which might put an end to Windows’ monopoly in PC gaming."

Nope. Not even remotely.

Yea... it won't. But it's a step towards more options.

[Razzer]

No doubt. Glad Linux folks have access to more games, but most people don't use Linux because they just are not interested in alternate operating system. They just want one that runs all their stuff.

This is great! The PS4 runs a modified version of FreeBSD that's similar to Linux. Hopefully in a few years we'll have something that's almost as good but free for everyone. A watershed moment for gaming.
