You should have looked a little harder before you jumped to defend Windows
games for Linux.  ;-)

I mentioned those games only because they came to mind late at night.
Those are all old, by gaming standards very old, games. SOF is from 2000
for example and basically abandoned. It will run because it is OpenGL and
could be ported. Oblivion and Half-Life are written 'in' DirectX. Those
would not, and many others I would think, run in Wine. Ever. Nor will they
run in VMware.
