Well, this in fact not a bug but a feature, requested by me during the
development.

What I wanted is to have ability to run the test without the engine
data which are used for FS tests.

But I think that the right solution would be to override detectGames(),
but leave detectGame(), which could solve the issue (former is used at
detection stage and latter is used when you actually launch the game).
I need more testing on this.
