With the numerous Linux graphics driver/hardware benchmarks done at Phoronix each week, one of the frequent requests is to use more popular Linux game titles available via Steam than the current selection of Linux game tests and OpenGL tech demos...

Although, It's just like you said, It still wouldn't mean anything. What would the benches show? Not gameplay, not graphics performance, not cpu performance, not memory performance....
I want to see actual gameplay. I know, I know....

Traces of popular games like that would be much appreciated, thank you.
It's far from perfect, but better than what we have now.
I don't think it's any more artificial than running something like a Unigine demo, and trying to approximate the results from that over towards running a real game. Probably quite a bit less, although it remains to be seen what kind of overhead or strange artifacts these traces might cause in benchmarking.
On a somewhat related note - can you run these tests often in what you report? I know you said you have a CS:GO test profile, some others for some Valve games, and you recently did one for Civ5, but you never really seem to run any of those tests. At most you seem to occasionally have a "special" article where you only include those tests and not your normal ones.
