That depends on what you like to play.
Two of my favorite turn based games, Wesnoth and Colossus run pretty much the
same on Linux and Windows. Homm3 has some problems that come and go as Wine
gets updated, but when it is working the experience is comparable to running
it on Windows. NWN 1 works under Linux comparable to under Windows as well.
(I am not sure what you think is signifcantly different with NWN. Are you
running the native version or running it under Wine?)
I have generally found that the RTS games run too slow under Wine to be
playable, so in that category Windows is going to be a better platform.
I don't play FPS, so I can't comment on how Doom and Quake compare on
the different platforms.
