Music to my ears!
I love hearing that larger developers are willing to take time and money to port to Mac and Linux. Regardless of the size of audience, they still see there is a need. I don't care when the game comes out for Linux, as long as it actually does... I'm going to buy it!

Average salary in the Ukraine where 4A Games are based is $381. Not surprising they see the benefit of Linux over Windows!
