Well, if every game on Windows would be on Linux, there'd be no reason to use Windows ;)

SteamOS can be a vehicle to grow the amount of games available on Linux, and so far, they (kind of) succeeded.

Well the reasons people use Windows arent limited to games. But in regard to games, relatively few get ported to Linux. Especially in the big budget gaming arena.

MS's push on PC gaming is even more incentive to stick with Windows.

I agree SteamOS encouraging developers to bring games to Linux. But ultimately, its the same content we can get on Windows. I'm more interested in seeing Android get support with actual console style games.

That's not really going to happen. For one, people mostly game on PC's that can also be used to work. Full Linux distro's are waaaaay more featured then Android. Android pretty much always lags behind in Kernel versions and the play store is a true minefield for gaming.

Valve has and can hammer in Linux gaming, Android will never be a major gaming platform.
