Video Game Database Discussion / Box Text keeps getting denied

« on: February 16, 2018, 03:29:08 am »

I have been trying to put in box text for games that I have that had been added recently but the box text keeps getting denied.  This are digital titles and I am using the synopsis for the games taken from the games official page on the Microsoft store (where the game are downloaded from).  Per the style guide that is the correct way to edit box text yet they are getting rejected.....can anyone help shine light on why?

Two in particular I have done that got denied are ZOMBI and Shadow Warrior for the Xbox One.

Per the style guide:
"The Box Text is the synopses that is on the back of the game packaging. This should be written into this field, and no other notes, or descriptions. If the game is a download title from services, such as Steam, XBLA, PSN, GoG.com, etc. Then the synopsis would be found on those service's official pages."

Video Game Database Discussion / Trying to update PUBG image for Xbox One

I am trying to update the image for the xbox one release of PUBG: https://vgcollect.com/item/136673 but it keeps getting rejected probably because they are thinking this is the physical release yet there is no physical release.  It is a box with a digital key to download.  Don't see why the cover used on that box can't be used as you still have to download the game to have it.  I've linked the image below:

Site Feedback / Filter collection by first letter of game name

I would like to see, perhaps below the page numbers above the games list, an letter option to show only games that begin with a certain letter.  So rather than having to find the page that has a certain game I can click on just the first letter for the title and get a filtered list of my games that start with that letter.  To me that would seem easier to find a game rather than the numbered pages with all the games.

Video Game Database Discussion / Xbox backwards compatible games - Xbox Games Store (X360) or Xbox Live (XbOne)?

« on: June 01, 2017, 03:48:11 am »

So just wondering how these games should be classified.  Should the backwards compatible 360 games that are available digitally be added to both Xbox Games Store (X360) and Xbox Live (XbOne) or just the 360 games store?  I don't see a reason to have them listed in both.  These are 360 games that just happen to be playable on the Xbox one so my thinking is they should only be in the Xbox Games Store (X360) category since they are technically 360 games, and if that's the case can we report these as duplicates if they are added the Xbox One category.

Sorry if this was posted before I didn't see it when I checked.

For example:
Xbox Games Store (X360)  - https://vgcollect.com/item/126074
Xbox Live (XbOne) - https://vgcollect.com/item/126073

It's the same game, playable on both consoles

Video Game Database Discussion / Collection breakdown physical vs digital incorrect for some games.

« on: February 18, 2017, 11:56:01 pm »

So I am in the process of adding my games to my profile and have noticed that some of the games I added under the Playstation Network - Playstation Mini and PSone Classics get classified as physical releases instead of digital.

Don't see anyway I can fix that so I'm guessing this is a backend change that needs to be made.
