Please make the player work with desktop shortcuts and possibly without any browser.
Also if possible make it update games to their latest version.

 Re: Major update to the service in 2010
Hello Skully, that's not going to happen, we did it before, and users got confused, and we are now moving towards a totally browser enabled 'silent' player. We already have it update games, you just don't know about it  Some games can't be updated as some publishers don't give us the correct patches... for those, I'm sorry there is no alternative but to wait.

 Re: Major update to the service in 2010
Then I hope one of the new features would be an easy way to see the latest released games in a list.. To get the overview, to know what you exactly have given us..
Right now the list (the all games list) is one big mess..

Do we have to download every game again, i mean, even those that already work on 64bit OS, downloaded with the yummy player?

No, the games that are already available with Yummy you won't have to redownload. Those that are transitioned from one tech to another you will have to redownload, yes.

 Re: Major update to the service in 2010
How will we know which ones will need downloading again - are these just going to disappear from the list?
Does yummy currently download a different package depending on the destination system? So say for example if I downloaded a game under Vista 32 bit and then upgraded to Win 7 64 bit will this require a download?

 Re: Major update to the service in 2010
May we know what games are being removed? I was in the process of downloading Sherlock Holmes 3, and it stopped about halfway through. When I try to restart it, it returns the message "game does not exist". The same is true of Runaway 2 and Return to Mysterious Island. Surely these can't be on the list? I played these games just a few days ago.

 Re: Major update to the service in 2010
All the games not 64bit compatible are being replaced or removed, my advice avoid them and stick to ones 64bit compatible. Runaway 2 - not 64bit Mysterious Island - not 64bit Sherlock Holmes 3 - not 64bit Considering its 1st of March tomorrow all the Exent games may have been removed.. they still show on the site though meaning the web guys still got some work to do

i think im probably right in thinking the list of games that you will need to redownload are the games that appear in the old player list.at this stage until they are all added to the newer yummy player id reccomend looking at the games own page to acertain if it is using the yummy player yet or still using the old player before deleting games from the old player and redownloading with yummy to view the list goto start/all programs/metaboliplayer and load the player then choose options and view installed games
