Genre Updates

A slew of a new games have been added to genres, as well as the creation of a new genre, Party Games.  Party Games are traditionally mini-game based 4+ player romps.  Usually something you break out at a party that anyone can pick up, think Fuzion Frenzy or the most famous example Mario Party.   Here is a full list of tonight's additions.

Sandbox - Bully Scholarship Edition and GTA IV.
FPS - Army of Two and Rainbow Six Vegas 2.
Music - Karaoke Revolution Presents: American Idol Encore.
Race - Burnout Paradise.
Shmup - Ikaruga.
Sports - MLB2K8.
Strategy - Culdcept Saga.
Oddball - Overlord.

Party Games (New) - Fusion Frenzy 2, Viva Pinata: Party Animals and Scene It?.

Yes GTA IV was added a lot earlier then other titles normally are, but the majority of the site has been playing it and it will give us all something to work towards.  Hit us up in the forums for construction discussions of the changes.

Nice additions and new genre. Should make things interesting

Nice, except I do belive that the "party" badge will be the most popular, 3 star badge. Those games are soooo easy for points. The way I figure it, I should have a 2 star badge from the get, and I only have ONE completed 100%.

Ohhh...this makes things interesting! I'm looking forward to seeing my badge calculator later today! =)

Thanks for the adds! All good from my point of view.

Wouldn't "Wits & Wagers" be a party game?

I wish there was an advanced warning for this.... I was 20pts away from the Race badge, and I'm worried I'll lose my music.

I dunno. When Stuff gets added it could be a hard Genre. (Besides I don't see a new badge on my blog, so maybe there isn't a new badge yet.)

Have you only added the US version of Army of Two to the badge system? Because from what I can tell (From looking at peoples blogs), that is what has happened, and it seems a bit unfair.
