Once Again, Dell Disappoints
Granted, I am not much of a gamer, but my gaming experience on Linux improved drastically thanks to Steam. So, I visited the closest Dell store and ask about the Alienware Steam machine.
They offered me the Alienware Alpha instead.
I made it very clear that I wanted a Steam machine, not a Windows computer with a Steam client. I want to run Linux games.
So, they got my email and promised to notify me about the availability of Steam machines.
I thought I was never going to hear from them, but they wrote to me in a matter of two days... to offer me the Alienware Alpha AGAIN!

Street Fighter V On SteamOS Bringing Fighting Games Over To Open Source
SteamOS has scored a significant win, as Capcom has revealed they will be providing native support to SteamOS for Street Fighter V.
For now, Capcom has confirmed that they are working with Steam closely to make this happen. They also explained that the game will have Steam controller support, and that this functionality will be immediately available for the beta. Hopefully they have a six button virtualization available, as is found in MadCatz's popular Street Fighter Game Pads.

Street Fighter V Coming to Linux with the Help of Valve
Capcom has just announced that the upcoming Street Fighter V game will also be adapted for SteamOS, with the help of Valve.
Street Fighter V is one of the most anticipated games for 2016, and it looks like Valve has managed to convince Capcom to release the game for the SteamOS platform as well. To dispel any kind of confusion, SteamOS support means that the game will be playable on most of the Linux distros out there.
This news comes as a complete surprise since Capcom has never expressed any interest in the Linux platform and none of the games from their catalog has Linux support. Most of the publishers and developers usually start with something that they have already released for Windows and Mac OS, but Street Fighter V is still in the Beta stages, and it will be a while until it’s going to be released.

Rocket League facing a delay for the SteamOS & Linux version, no 2015 release
Honestly, I don't think we will see this for a few months. They have announced Rocket League is coming to Xbox One in February, so I honestly think they are putting most of their time into that port right now. I can't blame them, it will probably give them more income right now, but I do wish developers would stop promising one platform, then side-lining it for another. I will still pick it up when it's out though, as it looks like good fun.
