Thread: Raptr

  1. #1

    Default Raptr

    Anyone else use Raptr?

    It's like the Facebook of gaming. If you've used Xfire, it also blends that into it. I really like it. Since I'm addicted to stat tracking (Last.FM, Whatpulse) the ability to track PS2, SNES, GBC, Wii, games along with PC makes things a lot easier on me. xD



    Not a huge fan of the signature, though, but eh.

    Post your usernames if you use it.

    How exactly are PS2 games and such tracked? Manual updates are something I think I would forget about after a day.

    I've seen some variants but that one is one of the nicest looking ones. I signed up for it and took the liberty of adding you as a friend, but I don't know wtf I'm doing

    JiroHero is my name on there because some bastard took my LIVE username

    EDIT: Of course it doesn't automatically track my play time. I'm too lazy to go through and update all the games, ignoring the fact that I don't own most of the ones on my 360. Ah well, at least it's a library

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.

    I signed up for it at some point and then quickly dropped it because the client doesn't run on Linux and I do about 50% of my gaming on Linux. And if there's one thing that bothers me more than a lack of stats, it's inaccurate stats!

    I just stick to Steam for game tracking, obviously it doesn't cover anything but at least I can get it running on 'nix.

    It's done manually. It is a pain in the ass, but it's worth it to me I guess. :P

    It should. Have you synced your achievements and everything?

    Understandable. Raptr's Boxhead - a forum admin - said that they apparently don't have the manpower to maintain PC, Mac, and Linux altogether.

    We just don't have the man power to support an app for 3 different platforms right now. I'll try and keep everyone updated.

    You know, I am alllllmost spergy and OCD enough to go through and put in every single one of my games and start manually tracking.

    Almost.

    But not quite.

    Mostly because we currently lack the technology to reach into my memories and track specific gameplay stats throughout my entire life.

    And yeah, I'm used to not getting stuff as a Linux user, I've just grown used to it and don't mind terribly! I think I had an Xfire account way back in the day, when I still a Windows person.

    Then just start tracking games from now, on. xD

    For those wondering if it automatically tracks Xbox 360, it is possible.

    My friend's Raptr. He only plays 360. :P

    I love Raptr. It's a great little program that helps to spam my facebook with endless data about what game I'm playing. It feels nice to get back at all of the Farmville folk.

    I'm also pleased that Raptr has an in-game overlay like Steam so you can continue chatting while playing your game. The only thing I wish they would do is get some voice options in their messenger services.

    Thanks to Raptr, I am now aware that I've spent 1191 hours on Lord of the Rings Online.
