Here are ones that will run naively:

Plus wine is your friend. -
@psudo Do you just install steam on linux? I'm confused by the SteamOS name. I'm thinking you have to install that OS which is built on linux. Please clarify.

For gaming on Linux, well it can do for most stuff, depending on your setup.
For big games, you might need wine staging (dx12 support, patches ).
But generally, games designed for Windows runs better on Windows.
Not that I'm advocating it, quite the opposite. :p -
moars426548y@jirehstudios steamos is a is built on top of linux, but there is also a linux version of the steam client
-
@jirehstudios Steam can be installed on most common distributions, although on some it may have problems.
For example on elementaryOS neither Steam nor games from gog seem to run. -
psudo3408y@jirehstudios As @moars42 said, SteamOS is a flavor of Linux that runs steam and is targeted at media center pc's. The Stream client only officially targets a couple variations of Ubuntu with a narrow range of aging version numbers. That said I've successfully ran in on Arch, Gently can run it, and I'm sure the vast majority of others can, but you might have to do a bit of work.
@lotd While the AAA titles that are essentially just console ports in general have piss poor support for Linux, a growing number of companies are supporting it. Probably the biggest name is 2K. They've ported over Civ, XCOM and Borderlands. Plus there is Valve and a whole slew of indie devs/publishers. -
