Are you running Rox as a user and trying to apply a command on a system file? Try running Rox as root.
But be careful! You can seriously mess up your system if you don't pay careful attention. Never use root unless it is absolutly necessary.

In a terminal window type:
you should see
drwxr-x---
if not then the permissions are incorrect. type (as root)
| Code: |
chmod +0760 /usr/games
|
to set the correct permissions.
