Php page with lots of search alternatives. With Alphabetically being the default option.

"JigSaw and myself have come to the conclusion that the reddit site sucks. They're also incredibly rude, very liberal and die hard athiests."

THAT sounds like my cue! :3

Alphabetically would work best in my opinion. Usually when I am looking for ROMs, I already know what I want and those sites that list them by release in numbered blocks (ex Search ROMs 1-1000, etc) really tick me off because it take forever sometimes to find the one I want.

Alpha-communisticaly. Only games that are communistic allowed, then sort using the alphabet. Except C is replaced as the first letter, and A is the third. C for Communism.

Well, now that the poll has changed a bit:

Of course they should be listed first by system, etc (I assume that is what you mean by grouped by type (handelds roms together, iso's together, console roms together, others together)), then alphabetically.

Ok clearly JigSaw wasn't very clear on this poll. This isn't how the roms on the rom pages will appear, this is just how the systems will appear of the roms on this page:
http://www.get-your-rom.com/roms.php

I'll give examples as to what the options would look like (lazy jigsaw ):



Alphabetical
3DO
Game Boy
Nintendo
Nintendo 64
Nintendo DS
Sega Genesis
Sega Dreamcast
Super Nintendo



By Game Company
Nintendo
Nintendo
Super Nintendo
Nintendo 64
Game Boy
Nintendo DS

Sega
Sega Genesis
Sega Dreamcast

Panasonic
3DO



By Release Date
Nintendo
Game Boy
Super Nintendo
Sega Genesis
Panasonic 3DO
Nintendo 64
Sega Dreamcast
Nintendo DS



By type
Console Roms
Nintendo
Super Nintendo
Sega Genesis
Nintendo 64

Handheld Roms
Game Boy
Nintendo DS

ISO's
Panasonic 3DO
Sega Dreamcast




Of coures the above examples are only examples and before many people point out the obvious, I did not include all the game systems in my example, I only included a few as an example.

EDIT: We can of course mix it up also. For example, grouped by company and within that group, the games be categorized by either name or release date

I agree with Canarith. Categorizing by company is the most organized way of doing it I think.

I voted for alphabetically. Since people psychologically almost all the time click alphabetical lists when looking for something, it would be a great thing to have the good old fashion ABC order of the games so people will search by title like, "Ooh, I have a hankering to play Super Mario RPG.... Let's see... Under 'S', perfect!"

I just think that would make it easier for users. I like the ABC order idea.

Id say "By Game Company", then orded by newest console first.

Also, the alphabeticly thing dosnt really suit my fancy. Say im a nintendo fan boy (say im vash), and you want to see all your consoles for nintendo. (I dont think my example works with nintendo). But if a console isnt listed with the same name as it is made by.. Say Sony Playstation vs Playstation 3. If that makes any sense.

IBock and benny are still not understanding what is meant by this poll... It's ok, I have those kind of days too



But yeah, that is very convenient as Bigbob pointed out. It also organizes things better rather than having a list of all the game systems in a big list which is alphabetical.

How did I not understand what the poll was talking about? Are you serious? I said I figured it would be good in ABC order, and that's what I voted; I think I perfectly understood the poll.

ABC order for games by title would make more sense, because that's what people go for the most: THE GAME'S TITLE. Most of the time, they could care less about the company's name, they just want to play it!

EDIT:
Systems go in ABC order on a sidebar, that would be the best option.

lbock, say playstation 1 is listed as sony playstation, and ps2 and ps3 are listed under there real names.

Playstaion 2
Playstation 3
Sony Playstation

They would be listed like that, no? This is just an example easily fixed, but some game companys have got game consoles with different names (Wii, DS, GBA, GB ??)

So they should be listed like this for ease of access.

Nintendo
DS
Gamecube
GB
GBA
GBC
NES
SNES
SP
Wii

Sony
PS1 (PSX?)
PS2
PS3
PSP

See how the list is arranged better than

DS
Gamecube
GB
GBA
GBC
NES
PS1 (PSX?)
PS2
PS3
PSP
SNES
SP
Wii

Good explanation Bigbob. Yeah IBock, this isn't how the games or roms will be ordered, this is how the game systems will be ordered. This has absolutely nothing to do with the actual games at all.

This is the page (and only page) this would apply to:
