It shows only shows the launcher screen partially for me. With winetricks -q
ie8 I can see the launcher completely and the demo works completely fine.

Can you confirm? You might have had a crash because you didn't install
wine-gecko. And if that's not the case, also make sure your Gstreamer
installion is complete.

I created a new 32 wine prefix with WINEARCH=win32,installed gecko and used
winetricks -q ie8 but the game's demo still crashed for me. I did not see any
messages of missing gstreamer plugins in the terminal with the Soul Reaver 2
Demo.

I also tested the Soul Reaver 2 game. The game plays fine and the movies play
as well. I tried to see if the game had any missing gstreamer plugins but i did
not see any terminal messages mentioning gstreamer plugins.
