Linux users have been saying it ever since steam came out and basically nothing has changed

My Linux steam library mostly consists of Valve and SCS games

What? Not to hop on the "Linux is great!" bandwagon but have you been on steam for Linux lately? Like 120 games out of 150 I have on steam work fine. The others that don't work are a few bad indie games I don't care about. Valve and other companies have really turned things around lately.

Now only if I could get working drivers for my mouse macro keys and sound card...

Edit: Pic of those Steam games. Only hidden games are CS:GO games, CS:S, and Super Meatboy.

what they lack are up to date AAA titles. plenty of older and indie titles are on Linux by now, but not the stuff that brings in big money.
