Maintenance happening now: cleaning up platform and game duplication, as well as doing a full sync with IGDB. ✨

Planned downtime: ~1 hour.

Will update you here if that changes. Don't worry, I'll restore the DB in case anything goes wrong -- your data is safe 💪

AND WE'RE LIVE.

Phew. The silly part is when I tried it all again, it was much quicker. But hey, we're done for now! 🎉

[Kamran | 🎮 Building a Goodreads for Gamers @keeptrackgames]

So close! Just verifying all the synced platform data and making sure that looks good. 👀

@MLebedynski Thanks for the mention! It will in time 😉 Social/community features will come after some of the more important updates to Search/Discovery.

@danno_omen I just finished Starfield so I plan to start Cyberpunk on Xbox. I'm already trying to finish Hogwarts on PC so I can move onto BG3.

When I play Starfield the scanning can be terrible. I don't remember it being so bad at launch but even with lower player numbers, I still get a bad experience most times.

Amazing Digital Foundry breakdown on input latency for cloud streaming on Xbox vs PlayStation.

Xbox 99ms
PS 137ms

But PS has much better image quality on cloud vs Xbox. Strangely Xbox is using Xbox Series S hardware for cloud.

Highly recommend this one for viewing. https://t.co/aUpr3lijlT

@Sqlf0x I know I'm late to the party here but thanks. I do get texted and notified when the site is down, so I try to resolve it quick and don't always post an update here 🫥 Actually makes me think I should say "I'm on it!" on the page itself 😅

@NikoMueller @NinjaTheory @XboxGamePass @XboxDACH @Xbox @xboxuk I've never played but it's on my watchlist

Looking for all the games showcased at The Game Awards in a single list?

IGDB has it! This is something I want to integrate since all my metadata is powered by IGDB but in the meantime this is still super helpful to go and watch all the trailers.

This is "Light No Fire"

The next game from @hellogames - we've been working on this for the last five years.

So many emotions you guys, but mainly - lets goooooooooo

[Kamran | 🎮 Building a Goodreads for Gamers @keeptrackgames]

I did it, I gave in, and got Cyberpunk on Microsoft store for the 50% off. I'm too weak!

I am this 🤏 close to getting RE4 as well.
