Don’t know what to play? Add an “I’m feeling lucky” button to Steam

[KillerPopcorn]

[QUOTE=PC Gamer]Choice paralysis strikes gamers all too often, especially in the wake of a Steam Summer Sale. Dozens of options are just a double-click away, but all you can do is stare at the daunting list of unplayed games, unable to make up your mind.

No longer: Reddit user benmatth took a page from Google’s playbook and created an EXE that, when run, picks a game from your list at random and starts it up. In our first test on Evan’s PC it ran Arma 2 – which, let’s face it, he was gonna do anyway – but this is a great way to make sure that none of your games feel neglected.

Note: the program’s only been around for less than a day at the time of this writing, so it might still have a few bugs. On one of our PCs it just crashes every time, which is neither random nor lucky.[/QUOTE]

It's so obvious! Why has no one thought of this before?

That's pretty sweet.

Awesome.

[Staneh]

Cool.

I have so many games that I never play. This is just what I need.

Hopefully, it only picks from installed games, otherwise its a lot less useful.

[Epic Lul]

Does it pick from steam shortcuts too? Like when I add a non steam game?

Hopefully it doesn't launch uninstalled games. That'd be a bitch.

It'd just pop up with the "Do you want to install this game?" box. And then you can just close it. It's not a problem.

I use [url]http://steam-roulette.heroku.com/[/url]
It picks up DLC though.

I've been using a random number generator.

Well, seems like I have 2 accounts on my system. Won't work for me so back to the random number generator.
