C... couldn't you just search "Konami Code" in the search box?

You could it's just that you gotta search it, then look for the game then search it again. I know it's being picky but eventually the site will get a lot more submissions regrading the Konami code and it would be more better to just click the tag and browse from there. So I guess at the current state since there hasn't been enough submissions on the code it wouldn't be necessary but this site will grow fast so eventually it will be a more useful tactic of searching for it.

But tags are for broad topics that can then be filtered. The Konami Code is just a reference, that's just a single tag in itself... It's just a lot broader.

"Konami Code" only fills out a little more than a page of results, as well.

I was trying to find Soul Calibur 3 via the series thing from Soul Calibur 1 and found a whole bunch of other games in there as well.

Yeah, this has bothered me for a while too. I think I have a workable plan to fix it but I still need to test.
RE: Things You Dislike - gamemaster1991 - 12-19-2014
On a similar note, I've noticed that there are a few games out of order. It's mostly the games with the words "The Legend of" in the title.
An example being The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past and Ocarina of Time 3D come before The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, before going right back to The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past & Four Swords and Oracle of Ages and Seasons. Another example would be that The Legend of Dragoon is near the botom while A Link to the Past is near/is the top.

I've been meaning to bring this up.
RE: Things You Dislike - Petie - 12-19-2014
I have absolutely no idea why it's doing that... Thanks for the report. I'm not sure how yet but I'll look into fixing this as I'm making other changes to that page.
RE: Things You Dislike - gamemaster1991 - 12-29-2014
I really don't like the fact that Facebook photos don't show up any more. Half of the photos in the Pictures Thread are not showing up and I assume that's the problem.
RE: Things You Dislike - G-Haven - 12-29-2014
^ That's likely Facebook itself disallowing hot-linking.

We've been having trouble with pictures since they updated I think at the begining of the month. It could be Facebook or it could be the site, or it could be both.
RE: Things You Dislike - Petie - 12-29-2014
It's both. It's the forum software's fault for being overly cautious about how it handles embedded images and Facebook's fault for their stupid image URLs with all of the extra stuff they tack on being required for the image to work. Unfortunately, there's very little we can do about this. And by very little, I suppose I really mean nothing.
RE: Things You Dislike - gamemaster1991 - 12-29-2014
Thanks Petie. I was looking though the Pictures Thread and though I would bring up the problum. To bad there little you guys can do if anything.

Wikipedia seems to list the three games starting with Demon Souls by the first game's name:
Wikipedia Wrote:For the three-part Souls series by From Software, see Demon's Souls.but it links to the first game. Personally I would treat it like LotR and The Hobbit, The Hobbit isn't prefixed by "Lord of the Rings" but it's often considered part of the same series, even though that LotR is more of a spiritual successor, much like Dark Souls is to Demon's Souls (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/287123/dark-souls-is-not-a-sequel-to-demons-souls-dev/). Ergo, all three should just be bundled under the Dark Souls series name.
I have no idea what the other two games are doing there though.
RE: Things You Dislike - Petie - 12-31-2014
This isn't s problem of categorization. It's just a flaw in the series lookup. The Soulcalibur series name is "Soul" and, as it stands now, the system is returning anything with the word soul in its series.
