I would argue it runs better in Linux. Same computer, different OS, better framerate.
I've been less successful with support programs however, like UI Central.

Really? I heard rumors (read: probably not true) that some guy got bannhammer'd because WINE registered as a botting program.

I play Counterstrike, DoD, (insert most steam games here), Warcraft III (DOTA and Use Map Settings maps), Civilization III Gold, and eve-online under wine. I play natively Battle for Wesnoth (my personal favorite), Glest, FreeCiv (a redone version of Civilization II for Linux), and Globulation is fun for a bit, too.
Forgot to add: If you haven't checked out Open Arena, it's basically a better version of Quake 3.
Radagast:
Check http://appdb.winehq.org/ for the wineability several Windows games.
cubeengine.com and sauerbraten.org feature two FPS games based on the Cube 1 and Cube 2 engine.
Battle for Wesnoth has probably already been mentioned, but in the way of turn-based strategy games on a hexgrid, Advanced Strategic Command features a more contemporary/futuristic themed one.
It's very nice to browse the Games & Entertainment section of freshmeat when looking for implementations of a specific game or open source games in general; most are registered on freshmeat, complete with genre.
