Look, this is gonna sound rude and maybe it is, but I am not a fucking moron and I know that's how it works. I specifically stated that I have used linux in the past, and I can easily google any specific game and find out if it does or doesn't work.
I was asking what distro is best for people to give current opinions on the subject, not because I cannot google very basic cut and dry info. I appreciate that you are trying to help but I am not about to sit here for hours typing the name of every game I might be interested in playing, so that someone else can read it and check it for me, were you about to spend your entire night checking games I listed for me? Of course you weren't, and the entire idea of either of us doing that is insane.
With all due respect, if you have any opinion on which distro is currently the best for gaming feel free to share it, don't waste both our times with useless basic linux info that I already knew about.
Rattlesnake in the wild, thanks to an insane ex-military Scout leader I had that was trying to prove a point to us (his Scout troop).
It was actually a lot better than I expected, but I wouldn't recommend it for a number of (hopefully) obvious reasons.
