When you type a word in search you will get the list of results.

Proposal is this, if there is only one game matching this search, you shouldn't get the list, but review page automatically.

If someone wants to check games with "HELL" in their headline, he will get the list, but if you want to see specific game (for new download, for forum topic about htat game etc) you just type the exact word and you are right there. It's not much, but it could be useful.

Example: i check Celtic Tales from time to time. When typing Celtic i get two games, but if i type Balor it would be cool to get review page right away.

We've had that suggestion before, I think. But there was some reason why this way it's easier for updaters (might have been something to do with checking the title pics). And it's only a single click, anyway.

Well I agree that this way is easier. It's only a matter of seconds, but like this it's easier to find remakes, deluxe versions, sequals...

And also you get to see the title (opening) shot (picture) for the game - it's like seing its box.

I'm not for this change (žalim Marko).

Hmmm, well i thought that if you want to list it..... I'm not sure that what i meant was possible.

If game is called something unusual like ecstatica you will never see opening shot.

i guess it is not such a good idea after all

PS. I said: stop using funny language in parentheses :D

I just appologised to him that I'm not supporting his idea (it usually happens that I am) and he said it's no problem (it shouldn't be one anyway) :D
