Video Game Database Discussion / An easy way to add a lot of games

« on: June 14, 2020, 10:49:44 am »

With recently release of Itch.io's Bundle for Racial Equality and Justice (https://vgcollect.com/forum/index.php/topic,10896.0.html), some of us suddenly acquired a lot of new games. And I noticed that many of them doesn't exists in VGCollect database. So I would like to know if is it possible to massively add this new entries to VGCollect database and to our collections, instead of item by item? I'm offering to help with it, if you want/need. I can generate a complete list of games on that bundle and work with matching and filtering the games, using shell scripts.

Video Game Database Discussion / Re: Wrong release dates

I reject some of the aforementioned because they do not follow our Style Guide on release dates concerning digital games.

Sorry, I misunderstood this rule. But it wouldn't be more informative to have the game release date instead of its digital copy? So we could know the exactly age of the game, even if it wasn't released digitally before.

Video Game Database Discussion / Wrong release dates

« on: October 09, 2016, 09:58:36 am »

According to GOG, the release dates of this games are wrong on the database:

• Evolva
• Kingpin: Life of Crime
• Sacrifice
• MDK
• MDK 2
• Redneck Rampage Collection
• Lionheart: Legacy of the Crusader
• Jagged Alliance 2: Unfinished Business
• Shogo: Mobile Armor Division
• Stonekeep

I made the corrections, but all my changes were rejected. Is there any reason for that?

Hi Foxhack. First, thank you for your quick answer.  :-)  The Fullgames launches some games in DVD boxes too. So, I was thinking of add this box art (in fact, I was thinking of scanning both front and rear covers of the box and the disk itself). And thank you for including a "PC " entry on "Types".  :-)

If you need any help to internationalize the site and Android application to Brazilian Portuguese, you may count on me, ok?  ;-)

General / Other editions of the games

Here in Brazil with have some games sold as magazines (this is an example of one of these magazines: http://www.fullgames.com.br). I have some games from theses magazines. May I submit them as new itens (and use bar code, arts, box text and descriptions in Portuguese) or do I have to search for a similar release of the same game? And what to do if I don't find a similar in database? For example, I didn't find a NA PC version of Assassin's Creed II, which I have.
