linux is not good for gaming since not even half the games that windows has is available on Linux. if your going to codei would go for a duel boot option with both windows and Linux. using Linux in a virtual machine would be an easier option though

Wine will let you play some games but with limited functionality under Linux as games are usually build for windows, as for what distribution of linux that totally depends on what you wanna do, Ubuntu is the leading Dev. it will give you most of the latest features with GUI and really easy to dual boot,VM can give you the environment but direct hardware access by OS will be limited, so all in all depends what you are working on.
