what about games

depends on the size of your SSD and your games
but generally game files are on the HDD. If you got a large SSD capacity, then do it.

Anything file related that you don't care about performance -> HDD 

Games -> Wherever they fit. SSD is the best

Anything OS and app related -> SSD. I hate having apps on multiple drives, makes things seem cluttery and annoying. Not needed unless you have a 32GB SSD...500GB is more than enough for an OS and any applications you wish to install.
