Although the new feature that this forum was created for isn't ready yet, I'm still going to reveal what it is, so here it is:
Video Game Room

What is it?
Well it'll be similar to the Retro Game Room except it'll be for non playable game systems.  We'll have game pages for systems like Sony Playstation, Xbox 360, Dreamcast, etc.

Besides all the features that the RGR has (excluding the ability to play the games), here's the additional features the game pages will have:
-Game Files (including sound files, various graphic files, etc)
-Online Instruction Manuals (will allow you to read the original instruction manuals online)
-Achievement Guides (for Xbox 360 and PS3 games, guides that'll tell you how to get each achievement in the game)
-Game Collection (select all the games that you own)
-Friend Finder (using the 'Game Collection', find users who own similar games and play those games with them online)
-and many more features which I will reveal at a later time

How does this benefit vizzed? There are many ways but here's the biggest 3:
1. Adds many more game pages and content to the site which greatly increases search engine ranking which means, more traffic
2. Games reviewed for systems not in the RGR can now be linked to a game page
3. More opportunities to earn Viz and more job opportunities

When will this be finished?
The beta state of the Video Game Room will be launched sometime this week but it probably wont be finished for another month.  The 'Video Game Room' will replace the 'Retro Toon Room' slot but the RTR will still be available from within the Control Panel.

What's going to happen with the Retro Game Room?
It'll still be available, the RGR games will also have pages in the VGR.  The Retro Game Room will probably be renamed to 'Online Game Room' since the 'Video Game Room' will also contain Retro games and this will help to avoid the confusion.

Oh, wow! This is amazing! I'll definitely help out when you have job roles available.

I love this idea, I'm sure it'll bring a lot more traffic to Vizzed.

the_casualty : Yeah I'm pretty excited for it.  Eventually I'd like vizzed to be the ultimate gaming resource.

Basically Video Game Room will be these 3 sites combined into 1:
IGN.com
gamefaqs.com
xbox360achievements.org / ps3trophies.org

That is cool. So would you probably have to change all of the forums that contain RGR to OGR? Then the titles of site staff. And will you need a VGR manager, lol?

tRIUNE : It's a good question, but yeah I'll probably have to rename the RGR forum to OGR forum.  There's actually a lot of things that would need to be renamed come to think of it, including the 'RGR Plugin', so I'll have to re-think of that's what I want to do with the title.

I'll probably merge the RGR staff with the VGR staff since the tasks will be similar.

-Achievement Guides (for Xbox 360 and PS3 games, guides that'll tell you how to get each achievement in the game)

This alone makes the whole thing better than I could have hoped.

I personally don't use these guides, but I know plenty who do.

Thank you David. This is more than I expected, by far. You've outdone yourself.

pieman9 : The friend finder thing came to me a few months ago when I wanted to play Perfect Dark online for the Xbox 360 but there was no one online playing.  A lot of the older PS3 and Xbox 360 games don't have a lot of people playing them online so if there was a way to find a bunch of people who have those games and are willing to play them online, than the online mode of those games wont go extinct.

thenumberone :
1. PC games will also be added, probably not right away though
2. Dreamcast is a disc system and disc systems are far to large to add to the RGR

awesome feature!

I don't have much use for it because I don't do much console gaming myself but I can definitely see the appeal for people who still do. This is an awesome resource to be able to access.

You've brought the retro and the current together now.

Galacta : No these games are not playable.

How can I make it obvious that these games are not going to be playable?  Sadly, there's going to be a lot of people who fail to read anything I say in my post and assume the games are playable.

I own a 360 slim, but I have yet to go online yet. I plan on doing so pretty soon, so I love the idea of the friend finder. Because I bought my early this year, I am very behind on games. I thought I would never be able to get achievements that required online play for some of my games that have been around for a long time, but now I might be able to find people to play and help me out on those Great feature! I have been using gamefaqs for about 15 years to look at stuff I can do after I already beat the game, and it would be nice to just have it here. One question, I know you said you might merge the RGR and VGR staff, so I assume that means making reviews for the new console games will also be available to help me meet quota?
