I guess it depends if they want a hardware accelerated desktop or not! If a gamer is playing games fullscreen, it makes no difference what their desktops look like anyway.

They wouldn't be playing games ALL the time though. They'd be surfing the web for patches, posting on leet forums, or ordering kewl stuff which would look nicer with a nicer skin. But at the same time they don't want crappy linux or mr.imsucharebel mac since neither play the top games (because they suck of course).
