Dont upgrade

App was working fine. Once I paid the $5.99 to upgrade the app no longer works. It crashes whenever I open it and freezes my iPhone.

Awesome for the most part

It works great, but has the occasional lag from time to time. Other than having some mismatched info which you can change depending on the game, the app works great and its a must have if you have a large collection like mine.

Great

Great love it Ive been looking forever for an app to list all my our games.

Cool app, easy to use

A new way for me to catalog my disk based video game collection

Awesome

I dont normally write reviews on apps but I really love this app. Its easy to use, and can scan your barcodes so it goes fast to get all your games in. Only thing if you dont have the full app you can only scan so many barcodes before you can not longer use that feature then have to manually put in the bar code or search that database for you game. But other then that its a really great app, I tired lots of different apps to keep track of my games but this one was the best and I highly suggest.

Lots of features, but messy database

This app is probably one of the better apps for keeping track of your game collection, but it requires a lot more work than it should to manage. The primary problem is that its source database of games is pretty bad. Its full of duplicate, inaccurate, and incomplete items. As best as I can tell, anytime anybody adds or edits an item in their collection, its uploaded to the global database as a duplicate. So instead of having a single, authoritative entry for each game that people can contribute to, we have 20 duplicates for each game, many with just a title and a cell phone photo of the game on their desk. You then have to manually look at each entry to find which one is the most accurate and complete. A lot of times, I need to manually edit an item in my collection to make it even semi-accurate/complete. Other times, I need to start a new entry from scratch, entering all the data by hand, and manually finding and inserting a cover image. At that point, why am I paying for this app at all, rather than creating my own database. However, once you enter your items into your collection, it works pretty well. There are lots of features for sorting and searching. My favorite part of the app is that it displays my collection in a clean, beautiful way, making it easy and enjoyable to scan through all my games and find the one I want.
