Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for utilizing input data received from an indirect interaction device (e.g., mouse, touchpad, etc.) to launch, engage, and/or close, etc. an object within a user interface. For example, a sensory surface of the indirect interaction device may be divided into two (or more) portions, a first portion utilized to launch, engage, and/or close an object and a second portion utilized to navigate (e.g., a cursor) within the user interface. When an object is launched based upon receipt of a predefined gesture(s), the first portion of the sensory surface may be mapped to the object to provide for interaction with the object via an interaction between a contact (e.g., finger) and the first portion. Also, the surface area of the first portion may be altered (e.g., enlarged) when it is mapped to the object and/or according to operations performed on the object.

Abstract: A user interface screen is displayed on a gaming device that provides both a first selectable item that indicates the ability to download games to the gaming device and a second selectable item that indicates the ability to view games that are stored on at least one storage device in the gaming device. The user interface is associated with the gaming device instead of with an individual application.

Abstract: Leaderboard information for games can be assembled by a console service and displayed to a user through a console. The leaderboard information can be assembled based on a list of users associated with the user, for example a friends list. Upon selection of a game, a leaderboard service can automatically access the list of users and game records for the list of users based on the game. The leaderboard service then assembles the leaderboard information and transmits the leaderboard information to the console. The leaderboard information can then be selectively displayed to the user.
