About Games
===========

Games is your video game library, if you have games installed from
Software, Steam or old gaming console ROMs, Games will present them to you
in a consistent manner and let you easily play them. Integration is one of
Games' goals and we already offer some advanced features for gaming console
games like resuming the game to where you left it.
