It's gotten so much better since Valve started to port over their games and they launched Steam for Linux which helped bring other Linux games to light. This forced a good update to nVidia cards that helped boost all cards performance under Linux to be actually playable. Once they port over DOTA2 (currently one of their most popular games that makes $$ after Team Fortress 2) this should also cause a large kickstart in driver performance as more users play their games on Linux.
