I've been thinking of doing that too, but that would involve finishing Digimon World 2. Although I guess I'm already halfway done with it...maybe I'll start it when I'm done with Chrono Trigger?

Just noticed that Backloggery updated again, what I've noticed so far:

- New layout when you add/edit Games.
- 5 Star Ratings.
- Reviews comment box [Not implemented yet.].

Time to START rating things. I waited specifically for them to change the system since it said that they would be changing it eventually. Looking forward to mini-review implementation as well. Wonder why it's there but doesn't work yet?

You only see the changes when you edit or add games.

Annoying as ****.

For the record, I'll only be using a three-star system now. Poor, Good, and Great, where "Good" means fine, average, acceptable, mediocre.

Just finished rating all of em. I like the 5 star system. I guess I'm real picky when it comes to handing out those 5 star ratings.

OK, so they just changed it again from the completely silly 5-star system they started using at first to a new (and if it's possible, even more ridiculous) 5-star system where 1 = bad, 2 = decent (which I read as average), and then three whole distinct ranks of good games!

This makes it somewhat easy on me now, since I don't have to re-rate any of my games. All they did was add a fifth "super-awesome LOLZ!" rank above the previous highest rank.

5 star ratings? ****, I was just making progress on rating all of my games and making sure I don't overpraise them. Time to start over. Sweet.

Ah, it's just perfect now. I didn't like that there wasn't an option between "Poor" and "Good". They should leave it like this.

But now it lacks an option between "Good" and "Great". They should tweak it slightly so the options are as follows:

1. Poor
2. Decent
3. Good
4. Very Good
5. Extremely Good
6. Great
7. Very Great
8. Extremely Great
9. Outstanding
10. Outstanding!
11. Very Outstanding
12. Extremely Outstanding
13. All Time Favourite
14. Very All Time Favourite

Following logically from their current rating design philosophy.

No, the majority of games really suck. You should be able to express the game's suckiness with words other than "poor."

Maybe. I'm just making fun of BL's current oddly lopsided system of having 4 options for good games.

I thought the 4-star thing was stupid, because there was no leeway between good and bad....

Maybe the way they had it set up before. Set up properly, a 4-star system has the perfect amount of leeway. Good, very good. Bad, very bad. Anything more than that is splitting hairs. Which people love to do! So whatever.

Good to see a change, I just wish you didn't have to go and rerate everything

I don't mind it. I usually rate stuff as I play it. I'm waiting for the mini-review section to open up so I can add a couple more lines to each game.

I came up with a new Theme, finally. I have no clue who she is or what she's from, I just know she's really pretty and if I was a girl I'd wanna be just like her when I grew up.

That's Elise from the PSP version of My World, My Way which originally came out for the DS.

Are you supposed to list all games on all systems growing up for this backloggery? Or is it mainly for games you currently have or have had on previous systems that don't date back in the late 70s and early 80s?

I only do games I currently own... I won't even bother listing borrowed/rented games, let alone those I've owned in my youth. However, what you want to list on your BL is totally up to you. I mean, seeing as there are some people who consider just beating a game as a master run, it's pretty open in terms of how you use BL.

I only list:

1. Games I currently own.
2. Games I legally own (no ROMs).
3. Borrowed/rented games only while I'm playing them.

I only list

1. Wii Games
2. Virtual Console Games
and 3. WiiWare Games

on my Backloggery.



I could have also listed my

4. GB
5. GBA
6. DS
7. SNES
8. N64
9. Gamecube
10. Mac
11. PC
and 12. Mobile games collections.. but.. just kein Bock!

Of course I own all games in their original and/or official and/or legal form.

I don't list games that aren't in mint condition (where I have no box and/or manual).
Fortunately all my games are in mint condition.

I see Backfoggery has a feature for borrowed/rented games but I don't use it.
Why should I? I can't imagine someone being interested in it. And for me it's useless.
I never rent games anyway. I just buy everything I want.
And if I sell or give away games I remove them from my backloggery.

Personally, I list down everything for my Backloggery. Games I've owned, pre-owned, borrowed/rented, or even emulated. My Backloggery is my own personal reminder so I can look back and see what I had done and accomplished.

So, I updated my backloggery...finally. First update since November I think! Not sure If I dig the new theme though, I'll probably adjust later when I have more time.

That's what I'm doing too (games I currently and formerly owned on my current systems...that I can remember). I honestly couldn't list every game I've ever had seeing how I've been playing games since Pong and owned a multitude of games over the years...had triple digits in Atari 2600, NES, SNES, and Genesis (with 32x and CD), my PSOne, PS2 (going on 9 years owned), not to mention the many Wii and GCN games....see? Too many to remember...
