When you're referring to version I pressume you mean distro type and not Kernel version. Distro type doesn't really matter for a gameserver. All will run it but with different performance.
If you wan't some challenge try Gentoo out. It's pretty hard to install but if you follow the guide correctly it will turn up fine. If you don't wan't a challenge or you wan't it running fast, try Suse or Mandrake.

I recommand either debian or redhat, they're stable and suitable for build sevrers!

I've just installed arch. It's a bit like a binary gentoo. It's quite nice and only takes like 30 mins to install compared to like 3 days with gentoo.
