We are successfully running gameservers within our VMware ESXi 4.x 
environment(without vmdq). I do have to admit the load is a bit higher in the 
VMware environment than it is on our normal machines.

  I have experienced nothing but horrors when virtualising anything 
cpu/timing intensive. But then again that could also be my hosts being 
somewhat non-standard. I can at least rule out VM Server as an option. 
I've not tested anything ESX-wise...
