SBLive support isn't in the BSDs yet, to my understanding. Also 3D
acceleration isn't as good in the BSDs (not that I can ever get it working
on linux, but in theory it should work).
Those two are pretty much the main things, although I also wonder how well
things like my DXR2 and video capture cards would work, but they aren't as
important.
