You can see most wanted games (and how to download demos) here :) http://appdb.winehq.org/votestats.php
For more info about ddraw games lionel can help you :)
I can verify that Starcraft is dx5-based.. I have been playing it since _way_ before dx7 was out.. As for D2, i think it is dx7, but it can be run in either ddraw or d3d.. IIRC, it works fine in ddraw, but the video test fails to find a valid d3d mode, so it forces you to run in ddraw. If we could get it to work in d3d, that would be great, but I should also add that D2 isnt very popular anymore (due to cheating, etc), so it isnt a big priority to me anyways, but if needed, I could test out progress, provided I can find my original CD's..

P.S. I also have a copy of sacifice, and messiah, so if testnig is needed with either of those, let me know and i will start submitting bugs to the db for those..
P.P.S. I will eventually get around to testing all of the windows apps I have and having bugs reported for each one, so I will eventually get sc, d2, sac, and mess. reported, but i need some time to play around with some other apps first.. Benchmarking is my #1 priority right now (as seen by all of the benchmarking bugs on the 'zilla).
