      @coltonrawrr The problem isn't that Linux isn't good for gaming. I've got more games on my Linux system than on my Windows system and most cross-platform-compatible games (which run on Windows/MAC/Linux) run much better on Linux than on Windows for me. The problem is just that, because Windows and MAC are dominant on the PC market, most bigger developers don't spend time on Linux (even though things like The Humble Indie Bundle prove over and over against that Linux users are generally willing to pay even more money for their games than Windows or MAC users). Well, Linux has grown from around 0.8% of the market to about 1.2% in the last 9 months and has only been growing throughout the years so one day big developers will start developing for Linux as well and then we'll be able to game a lot.

        @omni Desura has a nice collection of Linux games though, and some look pretty good, showing that Linux is more than capable of playing games: http://is.gd/EiEYjb - Besides that, Unigine shows what Linux is truly capable of: http://is.gd/xTtLlQ
