Post Website Update 10.22.09: Search & Sorting
Hey gang, we got a little upgrade to the website today with some requested features and a bug fix.

First up we have search that actually searches! Just hit enter instead of selecting a game from the predictive search tab.

Image

We've also added a sorting option for 64-bit compatible games, currently it's only displays 64-bit dekstop games but we're already working to correct that. We've also fixed a bug that reset your browsing preference when you switch sorting method.

Image

And lastly you'll notice a loading indicator on the game page, this will prevent you from hitting the "Play" or "Download" button before the player has started up.

I'm trying to download "Psychonauts", but the little "loading" button won't go away. Do you know why this is so?

Probably means your GameTap player isn't starting up. I'd recommend submitting a support request.

Search doesn't work for me. Everytime I type in anything such as Tycoon it says there are no games with the following words in it.

Yah. Search still needs some work. Searching for "sam" only brings up a few of the Sam & Max games.

Happy to see the other stuff, though.
