I've been gaming in Linux since the days Unreal Tournament had a Linux version, or even before that.

The only game I want to play that still doesn't work is Heretic II, which probably is based on some cursed DX9 engine or something.

Newer games I don't even bother to check before buying, they just work.

Edit: Hexen, not Heretic.
