Eh, I don't see that ever happening for Linux, since it is an open source platform and just about any Linux library could be ported to run on Windows. Mac on the other hand does have the app store which has a few smaller "exclusive games" available for it (mostly just iOS ports). Windows 8 has the Metro store which is Microsofts own walled garden version of the app store.
