multiple wine versions

Hello I managed to install a version of wine in ubuntu using:
sudo apt-get install wine
which gave me version 1.2.2

This version has been working pretty good with World of Warcraft but according to the AppDB version 1.3.6 is much better ('platinum') for Counter-strike: Source. So I d/led the source and installed it in /home/myname/.wine-1.3.6 but i'm not sure i understand PREFIX

i used PREFIX=/home/myname/.wine-1.3.6 to configure it and eventually i ended up running a game via $HOME/.wine-1.3.6 with the specified prefix before it, but how does winetricks and / or winecfg interact with this second version.

Do I need to reinstall each game into my drive_c for each version or can I run them with PREFIX=$HOME/.wine-1.3.6 and locate the main .wine directory

I guess I'm not really sure how I can make this second version my own and configure it like I attempt to with the original install
