Then 007: Nightfire
--> only the classic version is correctly named without "James Bond" http://vgcollect.com/item/70959
But the other versions are:
http://vgcollect.com/item/77430
and a netherland version
http://vgcollect.com/item/92356
where both are named with James Bond in front of it.

Do we (by the way) really need netherland, france or other specific language Versions of the games?
Like
Gun
http://vgcollect.com/item/64995
Gun [UK]
http://vgcollect.com/item/67246
Is it necessary to highlight the UK version?

My collection hardly contains anything but French Pal versions of games but i only add them when the cover or the title is different (i'm the one who added the French Robotech Battlecry for the Xbox and if you look at the cover you can see the blue SELL tag, the old French rating system), it's probably not important for everyone but it is for me and it's probably important for others too because if you look at all the cover of the Limited Edition of Jade Empire or Outrun 2, you will see small little thing that change between them (the rating of Jade Empire for exemple).

Do we really need them ? i will let the staff answer to that.

[Edit] Well... too late i guess...

If there's any differences in the packaging or game content (including language) then that warrants a separate database entry.

Hey Metshael & badATchaos
I only thought about the increase of multiple entries of "identical" games, if every language is added.
But I understand that if its important for you (or anyone else) we should keep it that way.

Sorry, apparently i was wrong (for Jade Empire two of the versions have now been erased, the cover with the BBFC 15 rating and the PEGI 16+ with the green tag "Version Française" on the right side are not on the site anymore, now we only have the simple PEGI one, too bad i used to have the second one in my collection... not anymore), i guess it's fine to report them as duplicate then.

Hopefully that old version wasn't the NA CE version... I swore that was in the system before (since I own it), but maybe not...
