    Like said above...why isn't RF Generation on the list!!! It's an awesome site with a very user friendly system and staff. You all should check it out that don't know about it!

    www.rfgeneration.com

    I put together a little searchable database on my website that I use to keep track of my games, and an interface that I can use to add new ones. That way, I can get access to the list while I'm at a game store by using the browser on my phone, and quickly see if I have a particular game or not. I haven't added all of my games yet (in fact, I'm not even halfway there, and I haven't been keeping the list up to date with recent purchases ), but it's kept me from buying a game I already had at least once so far.

    I use both IGN and RFGeneration. I'm pretty surprised that RFG isn't an option on the poll. While IGN has nearly any game you could think of in its database, it's useless to me for listing completeness, GH variations, owning same game in different region, and number owned. RFGeneration is easier than ever to add any games that might be missing, and I love being able to add info to games here and there that is missing.

    Ditto. I've never even heard of some of the other poll choices.

    I use http://www.consolecity.com/games because I contribute to it. Not the best interface in the world, but I like that it compiles the value of my collection based on market prices. If Digital Press would do that I'd switch in a heartbeat!

    I Use Game Collector from http://www.collectorz.com/game/ I think its a pretty good program. It even has a bar code scanner that stores up to 500 bar codes then imports them into your database.

    Don't use any. I just keep the names of what I own in a text file.

    Easy enough for Excel!

    I use rfgeneration, and judging by the amount of responses I also believe it should be included on the list.

    I used to keep track of my games by hand too, but I have a weird thing about when I hand write something. If I make a mistake I have to start fresh and can't stand any corrections or something out of alphabetical order.

    Rfgeneration.com is the most up to date list imo, it should be added to the poll.

    I've been meaning to create a list of all the goodies I have but keep putting it off on account of shear laziness. I did just register at Rf Generation so hopefully I'll start compiling a list on there.
    The world has moved on and left me behind. Therefore I choose to retreat into the past.

    My database = walking into my closet

    I just don't have time to organize my stuff into a database. Plus, alot of my crap is still in a storage facility in Texas.

    I do try and use the one here, as much as possible. It's been forever since I've updated it.
