A Game Filter is a way to narrow down the games you're viewing to correspond to a set of criteria you give the system. You can learn how to use these game filters here.
You have the option to save these filters for future use. If you find yourself keying in the same game filter criteria over and over, then saving your filters can save you time.

To create a saved filter, you'll want to follow these steps:
