isthereanydeal.com is great for getting any given game at a good price. You can see where it is currently/usually cheapest, its price over time, etc. You can also set up notifications for when it drops below a certain threshold.

Jessica,

In a similar vein, there is also www.dekudeals.com for the Nintendo switch. It has similar functionality where you can make an account and be notified when games go on sale for consoles.

Sigh_Bafanada,

And PSPrices for playstation store

h3rm17,

Also gg.deals in the same veins, it list both official stores prices, and key resellers, but with resellers it also lists the risks known for each reseller (like “unknown key sources”, “adds a fee after checkout” etc)

I HIGHLY doubt anyone still plays it but for planetside 2 fisu is a stat tracker

Heres mine

People definitely still play Planetside 2

FlihpFlorp, (edited )

Oh for sure, I meant more anyone here since the planetside community here isn’t the most active even compared to the planetside subreddit.

I still play the game and have played briefly in 2018 and then played since the summer of 2020 and I’ve in the abusive relationship that is this game since then

Gamefaqs is a classic for strategy guides for real oldies, or just if you enjoy quaintly embarrassing writing

Geek_King, do games w What are some helpful gaming websites you wish people knew?

I’ve gotten a lot of mileage out of co-optimus.com when looking for co-op games to play with friends. It’s really helpful, you can filter games out by platform, number of players, online co-op, local co-op, split screen, dated released. It’s very helpful!

If you're a patient gamer or a VERY patient gamer, or simply an old fart this is a must know:

amio,

Good shout, one of my favorite games is from 2004 and getting it to run properly on "modern" hardware and OS-es is not a super obvious process. PC Gaming Wiki made the process a lot less annoying.

@massive_bereavement@kbin.social avatar

What game is that?

amio,

GTA San Andreas! Good game, but stability was never its strongest suit.

gamefaqs.com for game guides
howlongtobeat.com for game length estimate
backloggd.com for collection tracking
isthereanydeal.com for game sales

Goronmon,

I’ve been using backloggery.com for too many years at this point. Any site that doesn’t offer an import tool is likely one I’m not going to switch to. Just too lazy to import all that data.

kratoz29,
@kratoz29@lemm.ee avatar

I have been using HLTB as a backlog tracker too lol, I feel like I kill two birds with one site.

LennethAegis,
@LennethAegis@kbin.social avatar

I only just migrated from backloggery this year too, so I know how you feel. It was a daunting prospect to manually move my 2000+ game list over, but I got it done. I'm actually updating both still, since it was so much work to setup backloggery in the first place and also serves as a nice backup in case something happens to one of the sites.

The way backloggd lets you write a daily journal entry in a calendar for every game you are playing is so good. Though I miss the homepage on backloggery, that one is still nicer.

Goronmon,

Yeah, the homepage thing stood out to me as well. It doesn’t feel like it’s focusing enough on the games on currently playing and is just a “general gaming info” type of homepage.

LennethAegis,
@LennethAegis@kbin.social avatar

Exactly. I love backloggery's focus on the games you are currently playing. The games you are playing and the last status you wrote are front and center when you log in and its exactly what I want to see. I can only hope backloggd someday copies it.

Ashtear,

Yeah, it doesn’t have an import feature but having an option to export to CSV was a big part of why I set up on Grouvee. Because there will inevitably be a next thing.

Well, that and I didn’t want a site with “backlog” in the title.

Rai,

My GameFAQs account is like 22 years old

Nice, mine is 23. Been using it practically my whole life, though I don't post there anymore.

gg.deals is one I use to find the best prices on games that I want.

ProtonDB to see how well your Windows game runs on Steam Deck (or on Linux in general) and what (if any) settings or tweaks people recommend

XenBad, do games w What are some helpful gaming websites you wish people knew?

Steam DB is useful for steam related stuff.

Crystal_Shards64, do games w Will more Studios end up releasing games on Fortnite?

I know this wasn’t intentional but the whole phrasing of “created by the devs of rockband” has “Boruto’s Dad” levels of energy lol

Essence_of_Meh, do kbinMeta w Any way to export and import subscriptions?

There's one tool for Lemmy but I never found anything similar for kBin unfortunately. Automatic account migration is also stuck as a planned feature for Mbin at the moment.

I'm afraid you'll have to do it by hand.

shazbot, do kbinMeta w Any way to export and import subscriptions?

A bit late, but I saw your post and decided to make a tool for this. Hope this helps.

theareciboincident, do edc w Looking for a knife that flips open like a Milwaukee Fastback for under $100

If legal for you to purchase and own (important, these are different distinctions), an automatic knife would be the safest for one handed operation. Anything from the Kershaw Launch line will be bulletproof and have decent steel.

Non-auto non-assisted button locks (the type of knife you asked for) are kind of niche. Kizer makes some decent ones, and Civivi makes the exact razor blade utility knife you’re looking for, but in higher quality and within your budget.

Otherwise I gotta say, if you’re not a current knife enthusiast, look for sales on Benchmade Griptilians (or mini-griptilians). The Axis lock is not exactly a button press but if you want higher quality, it’s a good option.
