i've tried running wine for online games like pangya (it was the only  
gaming disk i could find at the time) about a year ago via wine. no  
dice. don't know in wine's 1.0 era or if transgaming's cedega could be  
of use for games like those.

machine in question was an old toshiba satellite laptop. sorry, forgot  
the model number.

wine works for old games like warcraft 3/frozen throne and even jedi  
academy for instance. cedega also works great for those games. even  
the lan part. didn't try using it to play via the internet... just  
within a lan. winehq has a list of games that work and those that do  
not. but mileage varies when i tried it out.

the box used was an old amd64, 1gb ram, ati 9250 128mb video card and  
it ran via gentoo.

hope this info is of some use to you.
