Well games I have enjoyed on linux:

uqm (UrQuan Masters)
pathological
freecraft

Even lincity can be fun.

I just picked up Neverwinter Nights Diamond edition at ebgames for $30
(cdn, it is $30us on their website) and followed the instructions on the
forums on unzipping the files and downloaded and installed the linux
version of the client and the updates.  I then went through a few hours
trying to add the unofficial movie playback support to it, which I
eventually figured out so it now runs nicely.
