Well personally not being a PC games player it won't really affect me
that much I don't think, but I certainly think it's good for the
community that games developers are possibly starting to sit up and take
notice of Linux.
Maybe these days porting between consoles and PCs is becoming easier
that they are able to support Linux cheaply too?
IIRC I've read stories about porting games from the XBOX360 to PS3 and
vice versa so I guess technically it would be possible to port the games
to Windows/Linux too - or at least a fair whack of the game such as
graphics, audio, game engine etc.
