Anyway I don't want to start any discussion about this, had too many, I use exlusively Linux (well except some software I needed for school stuff which I run in windows xp in virtualbox).

No, Linux is a bad choice of OS for the gamer who has no idea how to use Linux. Sure some games out there have no linux binaries but if you have a good system and proper emulation the gaming world's your oyster!

Still not all games are emulated correctly, some might not run at all, just check Wine App DB. Also the performance is lower of course when it is emulated.
Also there are such detail like no mumble overlay...
I am not putting linux down, it is just there are lot of retards who make false advertisement for it, saying everything is cool and awesome, only to disappoint and screw up the overall image of the OS and the community. Damn, I don't want to have this kind of discussion again and again...

if you want to play at Linux you must buy CrossOver ;) with this app you can launch most apps and games from Windows (Wine is good too both apps are still updating to implement using new games etc...)
Parowooz:
Using free OS and then buying crossover to launch games that still won't be fully functional anyway. Linux is not for gamers.
