I got my 21.5 inch iMac on monday and it is really great. Really fast, garageband rocks, the screen looks really nice, and I am just preferring OS X to Windows.

I have some games that were unavailable on OS X so I decided to just use BootCamp and play these games. I should have researched more before (obviously) because I then found out about CrossOver games and Wine. But to use CrossOver games or Wine I have to reinstall all the games which is a drag. So, I was wondering if there was any way that CrossOver games or Wine could read the installed folders on my BootCamp partition so I can play while still on OS X?

I know this may sound like a weird question, but booting back and forth between OS' when I want to play some games is a drag. I am not concerned with graphics performance; if the game is at least playable then I am happy, which is why I am now considering using CrossOver games or Wine.
