Adding console games ported to PC, or created at the same time, then you'll have a lot more recent titles (including Skyrim and Mass Effect).<br /><br />@VicariousToast: If you have Dragonstomper as the first line, then you have them all unhidden; otherwise, you should export it as an xls and unhide all rows.
