• The easiest way to keep track of the games you own and want.
• The quickest way to find the information you need to make buying decisions.

Have you ever been in a Game store and seen a cool game but couldnt remember if you actually owned it or not?

Have you ever seen an interesting game that you know nothing about? Sure the box looks cool, but is it really worth $30, or $10, or even $2?

Wouldnt it be great if in under 30 seconds you could check if you owned that first game and be watching a video trailer or review of that second game?

Pros and cons of GameZen: Video Game Database & Search Companion app for iPhone and iPad

GameZen: Video Game Database & Search Companion app good for

The best way to catalogize your Games. For next gen and oder consoles
Ive tried quite a number of these apps and decided that this is the one for me. Its probably the simplest of the bunch, but still has everything I want and its the only one that lets me email my list of games to myself so that I have it accessible on my computer too. Im hoping this app is successful so that the developer continues to release more systems, especially the ps1 and ps2. The one feature missing is that Id like to be able to sort games by release date, not just alphabetically, but its not a deal breaker.
This app makes it very easy to keep track of my growing game collection. Sometimes I cant even remember if I own a certain title so I really like the fact that I am able to keep track of what I have and on what platform. The "Want It" feature is great for quickly storing the names of games I hear about and want to remember to check out later. The game database is extensive and includes a lot of older titles I completely forgot about or havent even heard of. Just scrolling through the list of games reminded me of some I had missed out on earlier. Now I can keep track of everything in one place and update it with me on the go. Highly recommended!
Dont knw y didnt anyone came out with ths b4. This takes care of my games collection wht abt my movie on bluray !! Gr8 app
I highly recommend this app for people who have a large catalog of games and want to keep track of what you have.
Amazing & handy app to have! Must have for any serious collector.

Some bad moments

Its ok...if you only have 1 system. I have 3 consoles and 4 handhelds. Its annoying because you can only choose one console that you have games for. I really need it so I can keep track of ALL of my games.
Like the title suggests wont let u install more than one console without paying terrible app
This app is amazing, I have been looking for the longest time an app that works this good and failed. I love videogames, order and lists and this app is all 3combined.
I have been looking for an app to help me remember my games when I am shopping and this app is GREAT!!! I have so many and have bought a game and only to find out I already had it. THANKS to the developer for making a GREAT app.
Can you add a loan status? So we can keep track of games loaned out...
Great app!!! Love it. Greatly priced for the additonal systems. Database is easy and great! Please make a Movies version!!! :) Highly recommend this app. :)
