There are lots of games you can play. That isn't really what the issue is  
with that market. The majority in that market *insist* on having the most  
powerful graphics chipsets available. It doesn't really matter if it doesn't  
benefit them. Now it is a market that tends to be able to take advantage of  
the graphics card and while the Intel graphics chipset is comparable to low  
end nVidia these are not the graphics chipsets any serious gamer is going to  
get a system with. On the other hand the masses are very likely to get such a  
card and that is our market. The majority don't game though anyway. This idea  
that GNU/Linux is being held back by a lack of games is an exaggeration. That  
segment of the market is probably significantly smaller than the population  
for which GNU/Linux is currently a viable option.
