It seems like the best options for buying non-FOSS games like you do with Windows is going with indie game developers. The Humble Bundle and World of Goo made a very good showing for Linux users, both in the quantity downloaded as well as the generosity of its users.

Dunno why this wasn't mentioned, unless I just missed it.

Osmos has a worthwhile demo, great gameplay, and a beautiful look. They make it really easy to try by offering RPM and deb packages. Full version is $10 and worth it.

And Yet It Moves is another great indie game.
