Find and light load all games (don't call their preLoad method here)
Show User Screen they can pick and choose games with, by options (difficulty, PR etc). Use Done button to move on
Show User screen they can pick individual games out with (for the ones we know to be broken etc). Use done button to move on

- Ask game mode for its options screen game
