Steam for Linux is finally opening up the BETA to the public next week after a short month+ long limited BETA.
Valve is stating that the stability of the client is allowing them to open up the BETA to more users. In a message they wrote to the closed Steam for Linux Mailing List they state, "The Open BETA will be available to the public and will increase the current population from 80K to a higher number."
System requirements for some Linux games are now being listed within the Steam Store.
Game developers are being encouraged to submit their "minimum" and "recommended" System Requirements to Valve for publishing 'ASAP'. Below is a list of just some of the titles that are available for Linux currently;
-Amnesia
-Dynamite Jack
-Eversion
-iBomber Attack
-Killing Floor
-Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45
-Serious Sam 3: BFE (I already purchased this one for a mere $9.99)
-Sword & Sworcery
-The Book of Unwritten Tales: The Critter Chronicles
-World of Goo
I am very excited to see Steam come to Linux which will only make Linux gaming increase as a whole

Knowledgeable on tech things including but not limited to Linux, Windows, OS X, Xbox 360, Video Production (Linux Tech and Gaming Podcast), Console and PC Gaming, Graphics (GIMP), iDevices, Geo Caching, Networking (Consumer level), and Audio/Video setups. I do it all and I do it with Open Source Software but I'm not against using proprietary solutions if they get the job done and done efficiently.
