There are some good gdb front-ends out there. Does this developer not know about them? I too don't use gdb directly, since CLI is not good enough for debugging. I need to always have the information I need on the screen without having to scroll through a text terminal. And a front-end allows for that.
It would seem that this developer doesn't know enough about Linux to actually be porting games to it.

After all the bullsh*t i saw in the comments i had to reply
For all of you saying that those developers don't know about Linux enough to develop for it the only thing i have to say is:
- knowing about Linux is different of knowing about the many GUI for GDB (which happens to be a GNU Project not a Linux foundation one)
- GDB (CLI version and the basic GUI versions that come in IDEs like codeblocks) _is_ limited when compared to VS10+ or the Intel debugger
- the fact that you have to know that you have to disable a driver when installing other is not something a Linux user shouldn't be proud of
Instead of saying things that can make those guys abandon ship, support them by giving them tips on how to improve their productivity
