Thanks to the great forum software that doesn't even allow the merging of topics.. and if you split posts it 'forgets' the other pages, even though you selected them
Not that much of a problem since it's a dead topic, the naming convention is correct as it is now, we'll simply have to adjust the entries that collide after removing serials. The whole (E) = (England) issue is nonsense and everything has already been said about it.
Uh, nonsense eh?
Toss is right even if he explained/described his issue a bit wrong here.
There were indeed Games only released for the UK Market.
A few Football/Soccer Games come to mind for the PSX. UK Versions of Singstar which had Songs of UK Musicartist which were unknown in other Countries.
Like there were some Rugby Games only released in Australia around 35 Games were released for the english market only.
And by that i dont mean Europe, only england.
So, our No-Intro based tagging is based of the region the game was released in, righty?
If we all really want to stick to that naming convention then it means that Games only released in England get their own Tag as well.
Again..by that i dont mean Games which are in english only. Those games in english but released in a lot european countries and australia should stick to the /Europe) Tag.
But those released only in the UK region deserve their own tag.
Of course that means a bit more research and investigation for the dumper.
Btw..there are still errors in the PSX and PS2 DB`s do to lack of reasearching.
I found around 10 Games already described as english only which also had other languages.
Others were described as "Region Australia" while they were the Multi 5 versions released and even produced in european countries.
I am known for complaining and recently i got disabled at UG for it after a discussion with a staffmember but dont get me wrong now please i just want the redump.org projects to be done with 100% careness .
In the hddx forum i am going to create lists of psx and ps2 games with their serials.
those can help here maybe too ..i dunno.
the no intro naming has indeed it ups and downs but in the end....with some tweaking its the better solution i believe.
cheers, gbk
ps: i am willing to provide my help to get a list together of games only released for the UK.
this topic should be discussed again and the naming sheme changed so UK only games will be marked as those and not tagged with the Europe tag.
