No

No! /usr/games was there to be fhs-2.0 compliant:
http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/tutorials/game_install/install_dirs-2.html
quoting:
"Binaries - /usr/games/
This is the easiest thing to do correct. Normal programs are placed under /usr/bin,
while games get their own directory under /usr/games/.
So all user visible binaries should go directly into that directory, this will be
mostly just a single executable binary."
