Of course, but also note that if almost no games make the criteria then 
distros and people will install Legacy Entertainment as the Entertainment 
package will be almost empty. Legacy Entertainment would be all current games 
ported to KDE 4 regardless of their looks and features.

And that is perfect and changes nothing except that people will expect these 
games to be looking less then the overall new KDE 4 look.

Magazines and review sites are showing Windows Vista's Patience and they will 
compare KDE 4 and Vista using silly headlines to attract readers. I would 
rather they will state that KDE 4 doesn't yet have a Patience game but it's 
mahjongg game looks amazing and all its 2 player games can instantly play 
over a local network without going through any wizards. That for example 
would make KDE 'the winner' in their checklists.
