Not sure where the idea of NO games for linux comes from
http://www.happypenguin.org/

has loads

don't forget games such as enemy territory, quake, doom series,
wesnorth, and Ubuntu comes with loads of games (try doing a search for
games in synaptic)

what sort of games are you looking for,  don't just say good games
because different people have different interpretation of good games,
esp when you have 8 bit emulators, and can play games from the old
spectrum,  graphics / sound aside, they are still good games if you look
at playability.
