It would be a great, great thing if Linux were to take off as a gaming platform. The GP2X handheld series might even rise as a decent competitor to Nintendo's dominance of the hand-held market. I just don't see it happening, however. Microsoft has, if I'm not incorrect, made game-programming a lot easier with the XNA language, and Linux really just isn't ready for prime-time in terms of a stable platform that's easy for the end-consumer to use. Linux really needs a DirectX equivalent, with stable versioning that guarantees games to work for long-term compatibility, before they can even hope to challenge Windows.
