Well, I looked at it, but the only one that piqued my interest (World of Goo) I already own.
sorry, I grew out of games a long time ago.

I think it's more a cost / profit thing. Paying more to port a game to linux would lower their profit margins.

The rest have probably either never heard of it (hence my vote) or couldn't care less about people who use an OS with such a low market share.
