Yes, it's Linux. You can read about what Cannoical's goals in making Ubunutu were on the Ubunutu site.

No Linux distro is good for gaming. If you want to play PC games (ala Steam) stay with Windows.
More detailed answer:
CAN you game on Linux? Sort of. Does Steam run under WINE? Yes. Do Steam games run under WINE? Sort of. The older the game the better your chances.
