(/me notes the above mmorpg has really nice graphics amoungst other things)

Now for good gaming sites there are several for linux: Try Happy pengin games(Linux Game Tome), there is also loki games, but there is as well linux-games.com(I think that's the right one as there are two by the same name). You can also try transgaming if you want windows games working on linux. Oh and also there are emulators for various old video games and for gameboys. *shrug*

Oh and try this link:
