What's that you say? You probably could have guessed this yourself without our help? Oh, fine, yeah, you're probably right. But look at the PC with his little mug of broth by the fire. He was freezing out there. Cut him some slack.

[Update: Oh, and also, lest we forget, Mac and Linux as well!]

I will bite the bullet and pick up this first installment, as it looks like a lot of fun. Somehow, though, I think I may regret not waiting for the future, discounted bundle.

Im gonna wait as see what other people think first, I just dont think the $20 is justified at this point, have not heard too much about it.

Ahh, I forgot this was coming to PC... thank goodness... when I have some time I'm definitely picking this up on my PC.

Just because I'm such a massive PC geek, I feel I must point out that Linux is also a PC platform. The Mac is also a PC, just Apple proprietary.
So it's for Windows, Mac OS and Linux.

So you can play this game on just about anything except a PS3 or an Amiga...
(I heard there's a Jaguar version coming soon.)
j/k, obviously.

Can you play this on PS3 Linux? or is it to graphic intensive?
Einhanderkiller @ May 14th 2008 6:15PM
I doubt it since there's currently no way to access the RSX.

No steam? meh.

Hooray for the Linux version. It's not the most exciting game that could come to the platform but we Linux gamers (yes, all two of us har har) are happy to gnaw gratefully at any small bone thrown to us. BTW I meant "small bone" as in games ported to Linux so please put that back in your pants.

How is it being distributed on Linux? Steam doesnt support linux.
I see on the playgreenhouse.com site that they show support for Linux but I'm not entirely sure how that works other than I guess you just download it from there as a Debian package (if on Ubuntu). Anybody know the details for sure?

Greenhouse is completely independent of Steam.

Does this mean that Greenhouse > Steam?

Is this coming to the 360 at the same time or delayed?
I'm currently dealing with the whole license transfer issue with my Xbox. I'm kinda hoping for the "pile o' points" fix instead of the transfer, so this would definitely be a buy for me.

I think this may be the first time I've had genuine trouble deciding where I should get a multiplatform game-- my choices are anywhere except Linux (no box set up for it-- although technically I *could* try running it under X11 in OSX if I wanted to be excessively geeky). As zetta excited as I am for it, though, I'm wondering if maybe the safest bet would be on the 360... I have some pretty big reservations about the Greenhouse service being ready in time. They just announced the trials, what, a few weeks ago? Late March at the earliest. I'm not convinced they've got all the kinks worked out there.

wow it is coming to mac?
Dang i had thought of just going har har pirate with it on windows,but i think il buy the real deal and download it for mac just to support these guys and their trust in macs.

Yay for linux version.
Chief O @ May 14th 2008 4:56PM
It will run on Linux as a stand alone executable and as long as you run the game under the minimum specs Greenhouse has specified with 3D installed you should be fine.
