The top 100 list has already been posted, but I thought this article makes some interesting observations on the list.

Overall the variety of games and experiences on that list really show how versatile the deck is, and that people can still have a great time with games that aren’t a perfect experience on the deck.

    We’ve come a long way, games on Linux used to require a lot of research to see if they would work. Now, except for some multiplayer games, I just buy games and assume they’ll work

      It’s also nice that you can easily return games if they don’t run well on your system (at least with steam).

      I remember back like ten years ago, you had to run Steam inside wine if you wanted to even begin the process of getting a game to run on Linux.

      It’s incredible how far we’ve come since then. Most of the time I don’t even bother checking compatibility before installing something. Most of the time it just works as if I was running Windows.
