Replying to Best Games For Linux?

I had a brief play with "OpenSUSE", which seemed quite good.... nice interface + worked first time I burned it to a disk to install it.

I see some games coming out lately for Linux but same as Apple's Mac, they are no match for the Windows games and they never will be. Anyway I've seen a Windows game being played on Linux with some DirectX and other emulators. My friend tried that and he succeeded but he had the minimum of his graphic card, not the maximum. The game on Windows Vista was running with 50-60 frame per second and on Linux was running with 10-20 frame per second. It's big difference and it doesn't worths to play on Linux operating system where you can play with better graphic on Windows operating systems.

Another one I'd like to recommend is: UFO Alien Invasion, this is by many considered to be the best turn-based strategy game for linux. Graphics are good, story are well written, you can indulge yourself into some difficult fights if you want. Hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do.

Best game is so subjective. Just like one's garbage is another person's treasure. But in my opinion, the best free linux game is Savage 2. This 1 man shooting game is kind of addictive and has really good review and quite some fans. You will know what I mean when you actually playing it.

Machinarium is another good indie game that runs on all PC platforms including Linux. Although, it is more of a point-and-click game that revolves around a linear storyline, with level progression achieved through correctly interacting with objects of the game environment.

Unfortunately, other than small indie games and open-source game projects, you will be hard-pressed to find any 'best' games that run natively on Linux operating system. Your best bet would be to run emulation software such as Wine or Crossover to run Windows games on your Linux operating system.

Haven't gotten that far yet I'm afraid, :/
I don't play the game a lot since I'm too busy with school and web development at the moment, :/

World of Goo is a game that I love! Especially the music and sounds!

Yeah, the soundtrack is great.
The Fall part almost made me cry.
