So. It seems that companies finally realize that it exists a market of users of Linux to exploit, and that, among other things, they want to play the same games that play on Windows (and now Mac OS): Valve has announced that it will launch its platform and purchase library video games for Linux: Steam.
No more "I go in and restart Windows to make a game Left 4 Dead." Now you can make directly from our Linux, leaving the Windows partition in a very background (I, like many others, used mainly to play Windows). See which games missing only removed if it will be the Steam Play (ie, for games you've already paid for them to buy Windows, you do not have to pay again to get them to Linux), and as the games behave with the drivers and such, this has always been the most problematic point games in Linux. Some titles are already confirmed Half-Life 2, Team Fortress 2 and Counter-Strike: Source.
