I can't account for games...but I can recommend starting at -- where
else? :-) -- http://www.linuxgames.com

For dvd's, I like Xine. Most major distros have packages for Xine:
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=xine&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all
http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=xine&submit=Search+...
http://xine.sourceforge.net/

In order to play css encrypted dvd's with Xine though, you will need the
xine decss plugin:

Or there is the all-in-one MPlayer, which plays a plethora of
video/audio formats:
