I hope Valve drops Vindictus for Steam if Vindictus can't be ported :V since it uses Source.

So what percentage of games will be released for this? Thinking of building my first gaming rig soon but the idea of going back to windows doesn't appeal to me. Should i just keep gaming on my ps3/360 and wait and see for a few years?
Whoever came up with the phrase "There is no such thing as a stupid question" obviously never had the internet.
That's really up to the individual developers. Valve is only porting the distribution method (Steam) and a game (Left 4 Dead 2, probably other Source games).
Look at Steam for Mac, it's been around for a while but not EVERY game is available for Mac because the developer didn't make a Mac version.

I'm going to go buy left 4 dead 2 immediately. I'm a huge tf2 fan so I hope that's next.
You can add 6 months to a year(as any Left 4 Dead 2 on 360 fan can attest to) onto any date Gabe gives,this is called Valve Time.

Use of Open GL would be the main criterion for a developer to consider porting a game.

I suspect the games available for Linux Steam will be something like 95% Unity 4, 4% Source and 1% everything else. I'd be VERY surprised to see any major publishers support it (ala Mac Steam); I'd imagine 0.1% of the 1% would be from major publishers other than Valve, and that's an optimistic guess.
