A FEW?

Games that run on OSX and Linux are the exception. Granted, there are now very high quality offers unheard of in the past (Kerbal Space Program, to mention one).

If you are on OSX, you have access to a bigger selection of games (Elite: Dangerous, for instance, or EVE Online - both using Wine). On Linux, good luck. Steam improved things a little, but it's still an oasis in the wasteland.

AAA games are still mostly locked to Windows.



"Just" need to convince devs to port their code to yet another platform ..... sic. Let's see how long MSFT and Valve can pretend they cannot get along.
