I was looking to get my feet wet in game designing. I wanted to know what software was used to develop and design games like call of duty and gears of war.
Gears of War 2 was built on the Unreal Engine 3. The most recent Call of Duty, Modern Warfare 2, was built on a proprietary engine based on an engine by the company that distributes the Unreal Engine, id Tech.

As the 1980s were drawing to a close, the developers at Capcom began work on a top secret project that aimed to set new standards for the platformer genre. That game was called Dark Rift, and it blended the intense shooting action of Section Z with the latest innovations in platform jumping from Mega Man. In order to properly fulfill the producer’s vision for Dark Rift (later renamed Dark Void), the hardware engineering team at Capcom was enlisted to design and produce an all-new chipset that would be included in every cartridge, enabling huge numbers of sprites and never-before-seen special effects to be displayed on the aging NES platform and the PlayChoice-10 NES arcade cabinet. Alas, time waits for no man and game developers are no exception. The dawn of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System made the additional hardware requirements for Dark Void redundant. Capcom suspended development on Dark Void as it began to evaluate the SNES. Before long, the game was shelved and drifted into the annals of gaming history. Even the internal tape-based archives were lost due to an unfortunate magnet incident which even today is best left un-discussed. Dark Void became a legendary ‘lost project’ at Capcom – until now. Nearly 20 years later the next-gen version of the game, Dark Void, is back on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC. But to commemorate the game’s humble origins, Capcom has commissioned this recreation of the original 8-bit classic, now re-titled Dark Void Zero, on the DSi platform. You play Rusty, the first human born in the Void, who must take on the Watchers in a quest to stop their domination of Earth. With the aid of Nikola Tesla, and his state-of-the-art rocket pack, Rusty must take down the Watchers and their minions across three intense levels of action and intrigue. www.capcom-unity.com/jgonzo/blog/2009/12/21/introducing_dark_void_zero

Since a long time have I looked for games software to run on OS Linux and I haven’t yet found any. Why does it happen? And there are no offers for MAC, IBM and Linux either. Have all producer getting money only from Microsoft or from the final users?
To answer the ‘why’: It is quite expensive to develop games for multiple platforms, and so most companies generally only develop for one platform. Since the largest PC market runs Windows, most studios only develop for windows.
That said, there are some alternatives. Check out http://www.linuxgamepublishing.com/ and http://www.transgaming.com
The first is a company that ports Windows games to Linux. The second company produces a WINE-based "compatibilty layer" that will allow you to run normal Windows games on Linux.
