I play World of Warcraft on top of Gentoo, with Cedega. In my
experience, it seems to work a little better than on Windows,
presumably due to Linux caching files... I could be smoking crack in
that regard, but it definately works, and quite well.
I would recommend checking their website (
http://transgaming.org) to
see if the game(s) you want to play are supported, and if so how well.
