I'm not sure. I looked at the dropdown menu for Sort By and I don't remember Installation Date being there before, but maybe I had missed that.

Mine just got updated and I lost my desktop icon and just had a blue square on the screen, but on reboot it was ok.

I noticed yesterday that when I started mine up it started installing something new, but obviously didn't register with me as I only remembered when I read this.

I just downloaded another game and got the updated game launcher. I noticed that the interface on "my custom order" sorting is more intuitive now. Haven't noticed any other changes yet.

That's the newest change I have too. I like it - you can sort your games several different ways - easier to find them.

Version 1.2.5.17 (as seen in the lower left corner of the game launcher) has a drop down box near the upper right that says "Sort by". That drop down box has been there several versions now. Most of the time I keep mine set to "Most Recently Played". When my son visits I switch to "Date Installed" so we can find the new games. Since they added the "Most Recently Played" sorting, I haven't bothered with "My Custom Order" other than learning how to do it.

Hi all, noticed that there was a new version, but it does not want to work for me. When i try to download a game it keeps downloading the new version. Anyone have advise, sent an email to support but waiting for a response? Driving me crazy as I can't get my daily fix of BF games.

Well- I can't determine what was changed. Luckily, no problems for me though. I hope those of you with trouble, get a resolution soon.

Apart from the faster download and greater sorting options the amount of space taken up by each individual title has reduced (ie the 'green' area is narrower).

I tried to upgrade and all I get is "not connected to Big Fish".. try again later... haven't been able to download daily games for 3 days now.

I hope someone reads this since I cannot locate where to create a new post, this BFG game client stinks!, I have gone several yrs with NO spam whatsoever! as soon as I get one game having to create an account with BFG to get the full version, now I average 20-30 spam a day from different things.. and THIS is the ONLY thing I have downloaded! and If I paid to get the cd of the one game, why do I need the game manager to PLAY it? I dont need a game manager for one game! now i po'd, $14.99 for a game I can't play unless I install their adbloatware that comes with it!
