Mplayer does indeed play some (if not all) WMA files, but you need the windows codecs and I'm not sure blastwave installs them. I don't think they do (though I've never installed mplayer from blastwave). It's worth trying certainly. At worst, you'll have to install the codecs manually (which is what I was referring to when I said "playing some serious games").
