That actually sounds very interesting! I was going to install the
application to try it out but got the following error message in Ubuntu

Hello there, joining the conversation.
It seems that this thread is closely related to the project I started
working on a year and a half ago, Lutris ( http://lutris.net ).
For the moment I've only implemented what I call 'runners' for a bunch of
emulators and whatever program that can run games.
If it could be installed as a plugin to empathy and if the applications
using the API could detect if the plugin is installed and if not have
fallback method then I guess it could be integrated nicely. But I think that
most important is to get the games application itself to work with save game

Well the idea was an interesting idea and pretty attainable in terms
of what we have to work with.
So the social features are all done with Empathy/Telepathy so the
developers would be able to plug in to this API that is already there
for this (in 99% sure its a dbus call or something to do it). M

On this entire thread I had a blueprint at the last UDS talking about
how to improve the gaming experience on Ubuntu and it got some
interesting responses although we didn't really do anything in the end
with it but we came up with a list of things that we could do in the
future and I think that wa
I think it would be used rather extensively since most people don't want to
put all their games in the launcher since it clutters it completely and I
atleast don't want to have to search for them everytime I want to find a
game. I guess it's the feeling of well organised content that appeals most.
Ah right. I agree that it could be more visible - but I'm not sure how
many users would use something like that. You have to balance features
with "How many users are actually going to use this thing?"

Also sorry about mentioning Desura, I just realised it hasn't been

Wouldn't it be sweet to be able to gather up all games into a
"games"-application, similar to the one used for system settings or the
games folder in windows vista/7? Since the traditional gnome menu is
gone we need a new way to gather up games, we have the
"applications"-lens which is good but
