WINE is not an emulator! It just provides necessary API for software
that is build on windows. Software compiled on Windows is in the most
cases only x86 compatible. Maybe you will get here a problem with the
Cell architecture which is not x86 compatible I think.

This is your PS3 GPU. The hardware access for Linux is provided and
managed by a hypervisor. At the moment this hypervisor restricts the
access to the GPU and therefor the 3D acceleration isn't available for
any third party os.
