I’ve long been a proponent of the home theater PC. Unfortunately, while they are much more capable than any stand alone device you might be inclined to connect to your TV, there are still many areas that are lacking. In this case I’m talking about gaming. In this article, I’ll show you how to create a game launcher using Media Browser that is seamlessly integrated into Windows Media Center (WMC) and fully controllable with your remote or game controller.

I’ve been using both GameEx and GameBrowser front ends (FE) on my HTPC for a while now. However, one of the problems I’ve had in the past was getting my steam games to load and unload properly. GameEx does have some workarounds built in which is more than I can say for GameBrowser. But, this is not about which is the better front end because I like them both for different reasons. What this is about, is Universal Game Loader (UGL), the small game loader I created specifically For this problem. It supports the loading of just about any pc game, steam or not. It also has built in scripting functions to automatically bypass and launchers that may be associated with your games.
