FreeBSD
I still play games on FreeBSD. Skyrim does work, with a little bit of effort.
However wine may still hit that 32-bit wall. Wine is 32 bit and it may be a long while before its 64 bit. As motherboards support more and more ram, you will need a gimped box just to play...
But games in general are "not as good" as they used to be.(showing my age?) For example Dragon Age Origins was 100 times better than DA2, which had an inferior story, less player animations, less options and a rushed feel. You could tell that 90% of the enemies you killed was the same "masked thug" that you just killed, etc, getting very repetitive. I honestly think I wont miss anything with Mass Effect 3, if I just watch a playthrough on youtube. Im really not interested in playing MassHalo Reach online, the multiplayer feature.
