Just wondering if it's possible, and not too difficult to sort save game files by the save date, rather than alphabetically. This would make it easier to find the right game file to restore, especially when choosing from the various auto save locations. Sorting by save date effectively would sort the auto save game files in game phase order.

Sure, that's how I have been doing this for the last 8 years. I shouldn't have to though. Using the Windows dialogs is clunky, and having to navigate where my save games are located is cumbersome. It would require allot less effort if this was presented better, perhaps by providing the player a choice on how the game files are sorted. Alphabetically, or in date order.
