How to install a game

I know this is probably a stupid question and probably been answered before but i cant get the search thing on this website to work. Anyway thats not my question.
Can someone explaine to me how you go about installing games like Doom3 and Half Life 2 on Linux? I have Suse 9.2 and Im a newbie and Ive tried wine but its just doesnt seem to want to do anything.
Do you need a Linux version coz the versions Ive got are Windows ones?
Thanks

There are instructions here for getting native Linux games installed. http://www.easylinuxguide.com/index....c962aa3cbeebe7

As for games that are not native, you will prolly need to use Point2Play (Cedega) to get some of them to work. I can't be much help with that as I don't support it in any way.

Hope the first link atleast helps
