Isn't the challenge not to make windows games run under linux, aka wine, but to get game publishers to release linux versions of their games?
I agree with that to an extent, but the REAL challenge is getting some great linux ONLY games. Think about it. How many of you out there have ever bought a console just for one game? As long as there is a windows port of the same game - users just arent going to switch.
I love showing off the capabilities of linux to my friends. Over the years, I have impressed many of them to the point that they wanted to switch (especially recently). However, there is a universal truth about newbies - they always have questions. The number one NB question that halts the linux migration (at least in my exp) is "Cool! Can you show me the games that come with it!?" or "Man, that uptime is awesome, but can I play X or Y?" It sure would be attractive for linux if we could reverse that situation.
