Gone are the days when Linux gamers had to jump through hoops to make their favorite games work on their favorite distro. Thanks to Valve and Proton, freshest releases work day one on Linux gaming machines with little to no tinkering.

Half-Life 3 is once again making the rounds online, with rumors suggesting that it’s in a fully playable state and could be announced or even released this year. If you ask me, Valve should take a page from Bethesda's playbook with Oblivion Remastered and just shadow drop it.
