I don't think TalonMan implemented the full feature yet. VG Chartz 2.5 is not completed yet.

I guess it's supposed to do like always, when you "track" a game and there are new updates for it, you'll receive a message or something.

Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

What SHMUP said.

At the moment it doesn't do anything... but in the future if you "track" a game I believe it sends you updates about sales/news for it.

So if you tracked Halo ODST for instance, any news articles that appear that include the game (presumably it will use the "related games" feature from news articles) will be sent to you, possibly as a link or something, or in an automatic PM.
