X!!.app doesn't run full screen well.  You can go into its options and set it up to run a full screen mode, then run your game.. but your game still wont be able to change resolution.  This is mainly because Xquartz on Mac OS X sucks BADLY.... usually best to run in a virtual desktop.

Crossover does their own build of X11 integrated into Crossover... it doesn't use the X11 on your system.  Their's works fantastic for Wine....

Since Codeweavers will not release their X11 outside of their Crossover product, everyone is stuck with Xquartz/X11.app... which makes it a MAJOR benefit to use Crossover over standard Wine on Mac OS X.
