    Thats why you don't do BETA games on steam

    Seriously though they should work on this feature.

    You could make a category Z_Useless Games and tag them with that and that would be the best you can do.

    The beta was forced on me, but I guess I will have to live with that useless name now

    Use the filter drop-down (top-left next to search) and select "Installed". No more beta games showing up

    ^that.

    Just make a custom category named "Old Crap" or whatever.
    Add all the stuff you don't wanna have clog up your screen into that category, and at least that way, it looks a bit more neat.

    I've read on the Steam forums that you can ask support to remove a game from your account if you really don't want it, there's nothing official to say they do this but you could always try.

    That's because you had fail. You should have stopped the installation. Removed it and tried again. What happened was not 8 gigs of patches, but the game downloaded itself instead of using the disc for installation. It happens from time to time.
