    I know most of the people use either steam or just put all the shortcuts on the desktop.
    I have a lot of games installed and I've been using a tabbed dock to put my shortcuts.
    Well, I've got bored. :D
    I'm looking for something that can organize those shortcuts like a library.
    And I can launch the games from there.
    Something like itunes.
    Preferably with the option to add infos for the games.. like covers, descriptions.
    Anyone knows any?

    steam. not perfect, won't add covers for non-steam games, but you can launch all your games from one place.

    Hee.. I know about steam guys.
    I tried it out.
    I added non-steam games there and they look ugly.
    Is there a way to customize the non steam game with custom cover and add informations on my own?
