Please have a look at https://wiki.freebsd.org/i386-Wine for details on 
running wine on amd64 systems.

The best way to run 3D games is to have a nVidia graphics card and to use the 
binary nVidia drivers.  Using open source drivers (such as intel) is 
theoretically possible however I have not succeeded in this (I'm working on 
the problem, when I have time).  

If you have any further questions please ask.
