I play anything that I can find for mac, Dirt 2, Deus Ex HR, Minecraft, and anything on steam. But I still use windows for anything not built to run on OSX. Oh and I game on Linux a tad to, not much though.

What games run on Linux? Reason I ask is that Im planning on installing Ubuntu on a separate HD as well.
 
I don't have steam or any games so no. I did play tomb raider on my pc partition when it first came out though. I also use the dolphin emulator to play wii/gamecube games sometimes

A lot. Some of the valve games are still in beta though.

Portal
Left 4 Dead 2
Team Fortress 2
Half Life 2 + Episodes
DOTA 2 (soon)
Killing Floor

Here's the full list, but it grows everyday: http://store.steampowered.com/search/?os=linux&category1=998



In Ubuntu it's a struggle to get Nvidia drivers working outta the box (or at least it was 12.10), If you're not afraid of arch I recommend Manjaro Linux. It's rolling release and will handle all drivers automatically. http://manjaro.org/
 
When mines built mid September mainly being used as a DAW Ill most likely be doing some gaming, if 80's arcade style games are available like the one above for sure (even if they dont demand that much from a graphics card). Also a third person shooter would be sweet (like a 21st century Duke Nukem).
