Well, "video games" is a silly reason now to switch to linux. PC gaming always brings about the hardware upgrade/software upgrade spiral.. The new game "X" will play so much better if only I dropped another $400+ on a new graphics card, or got more ram, or got that new patch.. etc etc. However, there are wonderful consoles out there whose games are programmed for that hardware and run as well as they are meant to run.. sans upgrades, etc. Linux does have its selection of games as well.. typically larger ones like UT3, Quake4/Doom3, etc.. and things like second life are available, etc. And of course there is always emulation via cedega or vmware (excellent solution). But again, keeping your computer held-hostage by windows due to some games is silly. If you HAVE to have a native windows installation to run as a "game launcher" then dual boot windows and linux. Simple.
