You can't just copy a Windows game over and expect it to work in Wine any more 
than you would to another Windows system.  You need to install it.

I've noticed the same thing installing it from Steam.  I'm only kind of 
interested in it because I noticed someone on the Steam on Linux group 
playing it and discovered it was a no-cost item on Steam and installed it.  
Discovered it didn't work, and decided to just go back to TF2 for now... :o)
