Not quite, Linux is Open Source, so that, If you know what you're doing, you can modify the system to work better for what you need it for. Its also a free (no $) version of Unix.

There is no need for an extension like .exe under Linux.
That is what it makes that different and a bit difficult.
Anyway, Renegade won't work under Linux Sad

Yeah one is called WINE but running games through an emulator may not produce good results. Linux tends to be used for servers mainly - Dedicated Game Servers, Webservers, Network Servers, MySQL Databases etc.
