Okay, I decided to update my game collection on this site and there were a LOT of games not in the database. Something around 80 games to be added to the database. What's the best way to do this?

Me posting the list of games with what details I can look up?

Me hacking into the database and adding them myself?

It could take a while. Please advise.

Jerec,

If it were something that was likely to come up frequently, I would implore you to become staff and then I would grant you the permissions to add them yourself. Since that is not the case, a list of the games that need to be added is the approach to take, and I can probably just fill in details as I go. Keep in mind that iOS titles aren't something we'll be adding (more likely than not, iPod and iPad stuff will be removed from the site entirely), but otherwise everything should be fair game.

Xbox stuff today. Side note, the Google custom search doesn't seem to work as well as the old one. Unless you can make a filter to search game profiles only, I'm sick of sifting through forum/blog posts that it finds.

I've added some filters. For the most part, the Google search engine should now only bring up game profile pages and reviews. There will still be pages that show in the results if there are references to the game in question on other pages that Google has cached, but the relevant results should be listed near the top when available. Google also doesn't index every page on the site, since HonestGamers is so huge, but it's still a good starting point and of course you can always browse alphabetically (that has always been the best way to find listings).

I haven't forgotten these games, Jerec, and I'll try to get them added soon. I have a lot on my plate right now is all. I'm trying to finish playing Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing Transformed so I can review it, plus I have some review drafts I need to copyedit so they can go live on the site. Around that and my work I have to do on other sites to pay the bills, I'll be sure to add the games you listed. Sorry for the delay!

Also, Walking Dead as a bundle would be nice. So if I ever felt like reviewing it, I could write one review instead of 5, since it's a pretty cohesive experience.

Added on PC, Mac, PS3, and Xbox 360, plus the whole series is available as a bundle on those four platforms in at least North America, so I added the bundle under that name and it can be used if you'd like to review the set as a single entity.

I have added the PC version. Are you sure it's available for Mac? I usually don't have trouble finding a record for a game if a Mac edition is released, but in this case I didn't find one.
