Online game store launched for Linux community

[ Thanks to tjavailable for this link. ]

"The service is meant to offer a simple and more convenient method for Ubuntu and other such Linux based OS users to download their favourite Linux games that are available commercially that come with bundled DRM. The games have packages and tar balls for Debian, Ubuntu and fedora Linux distributions.

"Of the games available for download in Gameolith, 3 are available for purchase as of now whereas the other 2 can be ordered. An interesting fact is that many of these games have already found a place in the Ubuntu Software Centre with the remaining waiting for their respective turns to mark an entry."
