	Yes and no. Some games, for example the Quake series, Dota, Counter-Strike, Tomb Raider, Portal, Left 4 Dead, and many more have GNU/Linux versions.
	Most popular games, alas, only work on Windows and occasionally on macOS. Some Windows games can be run on GNU/Linux with <a href="https://www.winehq.org/" rel="external">Wine</a> or its non-free variant <a href="https://www.codeweavers.com/crossover/" rel="external">CrossOver</a>, which involves some unpleasant effort for the user. For a list of games known to work on Wine, see <a href="https://appdb.winehq.org/" rel="external">their games database</a>. There is also Proton, a tool released by Valve Software that has been integrated with Steam Play to make playing Windows games on GNU/Linux as simple as hitting the Play button within Steam. For a list of games known to work on Proton, see <a href="https://www.protondb.com/" rel="external">their games database</a>.
	Here's the short version of the answer: No. If you simply <em>never run untrusted executables while logged in as the root user (or equivalent)</em>, all the "virus checkers" in the world will be at best superfluous; at worst, downright harmful. "Hostile" executables (including viruses) are <em>almost unfindable</em> in the GNU/Linux world – and no real threat to it – because they lack superuser authority, and because GNU/Linux admins are seldom stupid enough to run untrusted executables as a superuser, <em>and</em> because GNU/Linux users' customary and recommended sources for privileged executables enjoy paranoid-grade scrutiny (such that any unauthorised changes would be detected and remedied).
	Here's the long version: <em>Still</em> no. Any program on a GNU/Linux box, viruses included, can only do what the user who ran it can do. Real users aren't allowed to hurt the system (only a superuser account can), so neither can programs they run.
