12.10 - Is it feasible to install and play games in steam while steam is in Wine (PlayOnLinux)

So I downloaded steam on PlayOnLinux and I installed some random games and they open but I can't do anything with them I can move the mouse around and the menu buttons change, but I can't actually click anything. The games I tried it on were Castle Crashers, Deus Ex: HR, and Super Meat Boy and they all did the same thing. Should I just download the games from PlayOnLinux and then choose to download the steam version or can I actually have them in Steam, and I'm just doing something wrong. Also I'm on Ubuntu 12.10 using PlayOnLinux 4.19 with a GTX 560 and the NVIDIA Experimental Binary Drivers.




I use native Steam on Ubuntu for the games that are available for Linux, but I want to be able to play my other games that aren't available on Linux, and have them all in steam, instead of having them strewn around in PlayOnLinux.
