What kind of problems? I REALLY don't want to have hundreds of gigabytes in duplicate files on my system.
They just won't function properly. There are permissions problems and while some games might work, you will run into games that simply won't launch, or that have regular crashes, among other issues. I recommend installing the games you want to play on Linux there, and the ones you can't on windows.
