Sorry mate, won't be buying this bundle unless every game has a .deb package available.

Just for reference, in this bundle Super Meat Boy and Bit.Trip Runner have .deb packages available. Shank is a bin. Jamestown and Gratuitous Space Battles are .tar.gz. NightSky and Cave Story+ are .zip

Not entirely sure what any of that means, but hope its helpful for linux users.

*Now* they're making things even more of a cluster**** by using the Pentium name on low-end *server* (not mainstream) processors.

You forgot to include the footnote for explaining the **** there!

I assume you don't lock your doors or windows when you go out then? Afterall if somebody wants to burgle your house they'll just smash a window or break down the door anyway, so there's no point locking everything.

Submission + - Crysis 2 leaked (rockpapershotgun.com)

iviv66 writes: I have no words. Actually, I have some words- according to a thread of the Facepunch forums, a developer build of Crysis 2 containing the full game, multiplayer and the master key for the online authentication has been leaked, and is currently freely available from all sorts of astonishingly illegal websites. This sounds like it might be a serious tragedy for Crytek. Crysis 2 was scheduled for release on the 22nd of March, so the leaked build could be dangerously close to finished. More on this as we hear it, and thanks to RPS reader James B for letting us know.

The Facepunch thread has been deleted, but the file is already circling various filesharing sites.

I could probably solve a sudoku with some help from a group of students at the University of Tokyo as well.

It could just be the bowl of petunias that follows them around.

Submission + - OnLive but Lan?

iviv66 writes: A whole lot of fuss has been made about OnLive, but is there anything similar to it on a smaller scale? Here at home I have a small media centre PC hooked up to my TV which I stream videos to from my PC upstairs. This PC is also capable of playing all the games I enjoy at a high resolution, while the HTPC can't cope with anything like that. Is there a program available similar to OnLive, but that purely functions over LAN, so my PC could crunch all the graphics, and send them over the network to my HTPC which just displas it on my TV? Especially considering the main issue with OnLive is the limited bandwidth over the internet, there shouldn't be a problem when dealing with a LAN?

Shouldn't they worry about preventing people reading all their secret documents from laptops left on the trains, rather than trying to read mine?
