What games do you enjoy playing in Linux? Back when Doom and Quake were popular I played those upto Quake 3 in Linux. Recently I used the Cedega engine to run World of Warcraft on SuSe 10.2.

What have/do you play in Linux now?

not much to play, most of them are just stupid.

I usually use Windows for gaming, but it's also the only thing I use Windows for.

I used to play Sauerbraten as the only game on Linux though, but it's getting boring when you've played it for a while. It has nice graphics thought, compared to other open-source games.

Wow that seems like a nice game, I will try to remember and try it the next time I will use my desktop, as usually I'm on my laptop... which has only Vista.

Well, we must admit, Windows kicks ass when it comes to gaming... unless windows freezes or crashes :p

Here is a link for many games on Linux: http://www.linuxgames.com/

The ones that come with Linux are retarded.

I'm currently playing Alien Arena 2007 and Warsow. The games are cool and awesome to play. Try it!

This is probably a long shot, but do you think there would be a version of Silent Hill 5 for Linux?
I think I've heard of a version for PC based on an earlier generation of the game.
