Linux

From my experience Linux community isnt that bad, they all give you instructions like you have a CS degree though.

(Doesnt bother me since I've studied in the subject, but its bad if you wanted the fresh noobies :P)

Linux's niche is anything it gets molded into.

I've had better performance running certain games on Linux before, as bad as that is.

Hang in there Linux gamers! As a OS X gamer I feel your pain, but Valve is making leaps and bounds in progress to support Linux and OS X(their recent efforts to build a Steam client on Linux demonstrates their committedness). If Valve proves that gaming on those platforms is profitable more developers will be more likely to support them.

No thanks. If you want to play games that aren't emulators or indie, get a Windows partition and some good hardware. While I understand that Linux is for those that are less keen on spending money (see the big debacle about people thinking that Valve's Linux ports should be free, and how charging is wrong), ARR is a commercial game with standards to follow. Porting it to linux would be a waste of time and resources for a not-very-visible minority. You'd be better off porting it to Android first.
