Also Wine plays pretty much every game without much hassle. Certainly every modern game.
Some MMO's cheat detection engine's don't play nice with WINE or virtualization at all. Lineage 2 had a serious issue with WINE years ago. You just have to be aware and not simply jump in head first.

On Linux itself, I use Ubuntu for my MythTV back and front ends, simply for the great community support. If you don't know the ins and outs of Linux, you may never find a solution to your issue on your own and need community support. If you are using a distro that not many use, well, you may be out of luck.

Does WINE have a directx wrapper? When I was using it, for any type of acceptable performance I had to use OpenGL and most games are designed with one or the other in mind, not both.
