That's how I treat the games spin. Once you have Fedora installed and enough
disk space, you can install all of the games (at least properly tagged ones).
So I don't view the games spin as something you run is installed.

Instead I view as a way to demo Fedora. The games that are on it are there
because at least someone thought it was a good game. By limiting the games
on the spin to the better ones in several genres I hope it is easier for
someone to find one they like. The spin can also be used to demo how broken
3D is, though I am hoping soon it will be useful for showing 3D support off.
