Some are saying to reload -- and if you have shiny gold ammo, it's military and if it's duller, it's dirty.

Gah, Skullgirls for $5.99 w/ 20% off coupon at Gamefly. I don't even really like fighting games all that much, but at that price, screw it, why not.
Y'all are some damn bad influences. My backlog is bad enough!

Not sure if you figured it out yet but you should be okay. Morrowind uses Steam Cloud, but also I believe you should be able to find local save files at C:\Users\{username}\Documents\My Games\morrowind
Many other save files for other games are probably in or around your Documents folder as well
I saw on the Steam board there's some sort of error in the size listings. It's 1.1 GB download and 4.3 GB installed. Glad I didn't get scared off by that misinfo and picked it up. Seems like a competent pool game.

How are the games in the BundleStars bundle besides Tropico 4? That's the only one I know anything about.

How do you guys have your games library view setup?
Version 1
Version 2
Version 3
I've always had mine setup on the list, but then I scroll through and think... fffff what should I play next, and now I changed it to the tiles one (Version 1) just this week and I've played a way bigger variety of games in the last few days and am really enjoying it this way. Actually having a little picture of what to play helps heaps. Big picture mode is obviously the best for when you need to play on the TV but not everything works with a controller. I wish everything could be done with a controller only. Sometimes I just want to sit back and play Anno or Command and Conquer with a controller rather than sitting at my desk.

I wonder if they intentionally coded the review pages to be difficult to scrape. I don't know how crazy you can get on it (it would probably be best if there were just a line or header that said the exact number of reviews) but could you force all the reviews to load on a page like this and then scan the HTML to tally all the recommended and not recommended reviews? Or would that not perform very well when trying to load the data?

I don't know how anyone could find the idea of a trucking simulator even mildly entertaining... I mean SERIOUSLY what is supposed to be fun about that shit?
I use version 2 but with icons rather than images. There's a lot of wasted horizontal space though, I wish you could have category columns rather than one big list.
I use the first (default) one. I prefer having my categories show up, rather than the tiles: when it comes to picking a game to play, knowing the genre is more helpful than seeing the pretty pictures; it also scrolls smoother on my laptop, and I can collapse categories with genres/junk that I'm not interested in.
If the tile view still grouped games into categories, like the other two views do, I'd probably use that on my desktop.
How do you guys have your games library view setup?
Version 3
3, no exceptions.

Skullgirls, and fighters in general, aren't really backlog games.
Besides, you supported a great game by a small development team.
Thank you.
Sometimes you just want to get in a car (truck) and drive...

I use Version 1, showing installed games only. I don't keep a lot of games installed so I like having a single, informative page for each game I do have installed.

How do you make no.1 sort by genre?
EDIT - OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH, Set Category. Okay well now I have something like 250 games to go through and set the category manually for each of them, that'll be fun but it will be SO much better once it's done. I wish they automatically had an option for genre as category.

There isn't any need to scrape it: you can pull the votes/reviews in JSON format.
It's certainly possible to tally the review votes, and I don't think it's fundamentally difficult, but it's definitely not something that I'd want to be doing too often

Detail View is Best View.
Big Picture Mode is excellent for comfy couch scenarios, though. I love how sleek it is.

Pretty much always used 1. I always know what game I'm looking for by name and I really like having easy access to all the details on first glance (friends, achievements, news, etc.--all that good stuff).

list view with icons master race reporting in. only if the icons were bigger though,like 32px instead of the current 16px.
Detail view with categories is the only way to go. Also I say no to those small icons next to game names.
It's nice to quickly browse and see recent news, achievements earned, screenshots and such.
Well another shot at Surgeon Simulator, i'm trying to get it and get the 3 achivements before the playfire rewards expire

For the record, even though depressurizer can be buggy, it's much better than the other software someone linked in my experience. So yay for the depressurizer recommendations.
Yep, I categorised my games into genres:
It's a bit of a nightmare to do when you have games that overlap genres, don't really fit anywhere, etc..
I'd also say that it's kind of a good thing that it's not automatic, though: I have hundreds of games that Steam has in barely-related or horribly loose (ie: Adventure) genres.

That's why I have an Action category, pretty much anything can be shoehorned into action!

I like some of your classifications.
I always have trouble on figuring out where to place certain games that break genres and such too.
Assassin's Creed kind of ends up being Stealth for me, I guess? Though it fits in others.
I do have an adventure category, but it's not subbed with the POINT AND CLICK... I need to do that... so that way other games can fit into ADVENTURE if needed.
I've also toyed with the idea of doing major groups by developer:
UBISOFT
CAPCOM
VALVE
Or by Franchise if it's got 2-3+ entries:
ASSASSIN'S CREED
HALF-LIFE
PORTAL
TOMB RAIDER
RAYMAN
But I haven't found the key to what I really like yet. :|

My key didn't activate the Soundtrack Edition as it should have:
D'oh.
Maybe it's not DLC, some games just put the soundtrack in a subfolder in their installation directory.

Man, all this talk of how you organize your games reminds me of High Fidelity

Dick: I guess it looks as if you're reorganizing your records. What is this though? Chronological?
Rob: No...
Dick: Not alphabetical...
Rob: Nope...
Dick: What?
Rob: Autobiographical.

My Humble copy included the soundtrack.
I've sent another e-mail to DF so hopefully it's all sorted soon.

D'oh.
My key contained the Soundtrack Edition initially and it showed up in the DLC tab. It was removed later. I'm not sure exactly why since I backed the game at a tier that includes the soundtrack. Looking at the time of Retroid's post ... it may have been from before they removed it (I'm not sure exactly though).
Curiouser and curiouser.
Edit: Next Car Game is up on the store. $25 for the standard edition or $50 for the DDE.
I'm obsessive when it comes to organisation/categorisation, and I love to be specific wherever possible. It's thanks to that that I ended up with those sub-categories, and they're quite helpful given how differently point-and-click games play compared to 3D/first-person ones (they require different moods to play and enjoy, imo.)
I thought the same re the AC games: mine are in the Stealth category.
I've never considered using publishers. They wouldn't work as good categories for me because I'm inclined to forget who published what.
I avoided a generic Action category because it would have ended up containing hundreds of games... not very helpful in narrowing my list down.

Generic ACTION is what I reserved for games like DMC3/DMC4/MGR:R and anything in those lines of combo weapon heavy precision gameplay.
The spanning of genres really pisses me off though... like the Mass Effect games. They play mostly like a Third person cover-based shooter, with some RPG elements like inventory and experience.
Hotline Miami and Guacamelee were equally baffling to me. As well as the Darksiders games. I threw the Darksiders games into ACTION RPG because they have some semblence of the ACTION combat I mention above but rely on leveling/upgrade systems (and loot in Darksiders 2) more than the former. I think I threw Hotline Miami into RUN & GUN and I have no idea where I put Guacamelee...
I had a category called METROIDVANIA, but I didn't like that one so much and strove to recategorize anything in it.
