Here are two interesting gaming news for Linux users, as Valve director confirmed Steam for Linux, and Blizzard started banning Diablo III users who use Linux.

In the short video posted above, Valve's managing director, Gabe Newell, is interviewed by the Norwegian site DagBladet.no at E3 2012, talking briefly about their upcoming plans with Steam and support for the Linux platform.

Thanks to Michael Larabel from phoronix.com we already knew that Steam will be available for Linux users by the year's end.

In other news, it appears that lots of Linux users, who installed the Diablo III game via Wine or PlayOnLinux apps, are getting banned from the Battle.net system.

Contacted by lots of angry Diablo III owners, Blizzard response was negative: we will not un-ban accounts and we won't issue a refund to users.
