This is exactly what I do, but I also have a category that is titled "Do Not Play" for those games that are just fucking terrible.

My "Favorites" are the games I considered keepers. Everything else are games I don't like or don't want to keep but can't get rid of because Steam.

Installed is enough for me, I'm pretty ruthless with clearing out my hdd

I do have a section that just says "Stuff I am never going to play". There are a lot of games in that one. No really, I'm good not playing whatever crummy tower defense game(s) I obtained via humble bundles and poorly thought out impulse purchases.

I have one category called "To Play" were I put things I get on sales and in bundles so I don't forget about them. I still manage to forget to play most of them though.

I sort by projected time to beat.

Yep.

But I only created 1 other category besides your general library and favorites.

- Bin - for games I will never ever play again, or are shit, or never wanted in the first place, i just keep it minimized so it doesn't pollute my main library

I have been sorting them as Favorites, Beaten, and Not Beaten, but I may reorganize them to include the categories of "Not Going to Beat" and "Not Worth Playing"

Or just go back to one giant list with a small category of "To Play" games on the side.

I organise by genre. Which can be a little awkward at times, especially with RPGs.

As such I know catagorise them as:

• Action-RPG - Your Diablo clones and the like
• Classic-RPG - Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter etc.
• Modern-RPG - Mass Effect, The Witcher, TES and all that good stuff.

I can't do genre, it's just way too many categories to go through. For me I have it like this:

• Favorites - What I'm actively playing and trying to beat
• Done With - Games I'll probably never go back to
• Indie Games - ...indie games
• Multiplayer - Ze Multiplayer games
• Games - Games I'm not actively playing but I may go back to in the future

I use this terrible list of genres.

Best thing? Chivalry is in FPS. Yep. I abuse these quite badly. At least I know where my games are. I also like that I can put my friend's games in my categories, so I only have to see the games from their libraries I actually care about.

I didn't know you could do this. I am going to do this now.

I got in to getting and selling trading cards so I made a category for games with drops remaining. Don't really use it anymore though.

I have sorted all of my games according to the hair color of the main character.

I have 36 brunette, 9 blonde, 1 redhead, 17 other, and 74 not applicable.

Finally it won't be such a hassle to find the game I'm looking for.
