So I added a ton of games to the database and I discovered a couple bugs and things that I think should be improved.

1) say you set the date of a game to Jan. 12th, 1995 and save it. If you go back to editing the game, then the page now says Jan. 13th, 1995. This is a problem, because if someone just goes in to update a spelling error, or add info to the summary, then he would incidentally change the date.

2) If you set the date for America to Jan 12th, 1995, and set both Japan, and Europe to Unknown and save it. If you go back to editing the game, all previously unknown games that follow one that was set, is now set to whatever the known was was at. So in this example, all 3 regions now show Jan 13th, 1995

3) If you don't set a publisher for a region,  and don't click unknown for the date, then the date left in the boxes is displayed. It might be better if you have to put N/A as publisher if you don't know who did, and then allow the date to be displayed.

4) If a game was never released in America, you should be able to leave the field blank, and then fill in whatever region is known. The game database should display the first known publisher, or possibly make a Radio button next to each region, so the user can decide which publisher was the primary publisher.

 I know your busy ioi, but fixing these would help prevent errors with release dates and regions.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy
