If there's something any PC gamer will always want to have it is a means of starting any of the preferred games instantly. And preferably without having to go through the boring procedure of inserting the disc, waiting for it to load and then selecting 'Run game.'

Well, if you feel the above is true for you, there's some good news heading your way because you've reached the right page. Game Jackal Pro will do exactly that for you, namely help you dramatically cut down loading times for your favorite titles.

Before installing it you should save the files you currently have opened because a reboot will be necessary to complete the installation.

You can postpone the restart, but in order to have the program run smoothly and enjoy all the features, you'll have to do it sooner rather than later. Once you do that, you'll be able to run it and enjoy its nice and friendly interface and all its functions.

Specify the installation disc and manage several preset profiles

The first thing you can do after it starts up is create a new profile, so grab the installation discs of your preferred game and get to work.

Game Jackal will prove to be very helpful from the get-go, thanks to its database that includes a few hundred built-in profiles for different versions of many hugely popular titles. You should also note that all the profiles you make can be modified, moved or exported to a different location.

As soon as you finished setting up all the needed profiles, you'll be able to launch the games without having to insert each time the CD or DVD, thus greatly increasing its lifespan.

The application also works well for those titles that require data streaming from the original disc. It will simply create a virtual image that will be used to emulate the presence of the hard copy.

When security becomes a major concern, Game Jackal pulls an ace out of its sleeve: 'Guardian Control.' This neat feature will give you the possibility you to enforce restrictions on profiles, thus blocking unauthorized access to any of the games in your collection. You can also protect the application itself by creating a master password from the 'General Settings' menu.

Game Jackal Pro can definitely have a positive impact on your gaming experience, but it's up to you to decide whether you love it or hate it. All we can do is give it a hearty recommendation, so take it for a spin and see just how useful it can actually be for you.
