When I has putting my collection up on vgchartz, I noticed something; there are ALOT of multiples on the site.



And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

Duplicate titles? Ever notice the thread in this very forum about duplicates in the DB?

We should be able to handle the duplicates a lot better pretty soon. But I feel ya, it's one of my big concerns about the DB right now.

I made a mistake. I put SCi as the developer for Richard Burns Rally, it should be Warthog Games.

If the publisher is not in the database, should I just not add the release date?

And those anybody know any good software for taking screenshots?

You can still add the date. There is an "unknown" option to select from the publisher list.

My main concern is that some people will own one version of the game, and another person will own the duplicate. Once we delete the duplicate, they'll have a missing game in their collection.

earth 2160's developer is Reality Pump and it's genre is Strategy. And could somebody change it's name so it begins with a capital letter. Thank you in advance.

X3 Reunion was published by Enlight in NA. And I wouldn't call it a strategy game.

Edit: Should gold editions be added?

1080 Avalanche developer is NST(Nintendo Software Technology), genre is sports.

The summaries I submitted come from Nintendo's online press room.

Baten Kaitos 2 should be removed, it already exists as Baten Kaitos Origins.

Children Of Mana is missing from the database. Or is it now Seiken Densetsu DS: Children Of Mana?

Batallion Wars should be spelled with two "t" and one "l".

Custom Robo developer is Noise, Nintendo has it's genre as Robot Battle/Role-Playing Game (RPG).

Edit: Thanks to whoever fixed these.

Disney Magical Mirror developer is Capcom, genre is adventure. And it's full name is Disney's Magical Mirror Starring Mickey Mouse.

Donkey Konga 2 developer is Namco , genre is other.

Geist developer is n-Space, genre is adventure.

Dear Sirs,

there is no Neo Geo Pocket / Neo Geo Pocket Color - section under games - it's an excelent console(s), and I personaly think that it deserve to be added.

Regards,

Then please don't use their covers/images

Gamefaqs.com is a great source for large boxart images (which we do support now, we just don't display it yet, so please use large images), however they typically don't have boxart images until after the game comes out or it is a fairly big game.




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