Default Faulty Games Database for old games

Hi there
Thought I would mention, that some of the old games I looked up, have errors on their info page.

See for yourself on games like Guilty - the sequel to Innocent Until Caught.
http://www.adventuregamers.com/gameinfo.php?id=515

If for some reason it doesn't show for you, then I don't know, lol.
Been like that for me for a long time with some of the really older games, that are not often searched for, I'm guessing.

I don't want it to sound, that I'm all complaining, cuz I really appreciate the work, you've done in making this awesome database for us.
I use it a lot to check on games I've only seen mentioned here in the forum.
So thanks

Misslilo, are you using Internet Explorer? Works fine in Firefox, but you're right, it seems the tabs aren't setting correctly in IE.

Looks fine to me in IE 6, as long as you wait for the tabs to render.

Yeah sort of, using maxthon, but it's the same core.

And since it's only for a few games, I suspect it to be too old coding not up to new standard maybe.

This is how it looks like for me:



EDIT:
Hmm, just tried putting on my webAds blocker and the problem is gone.
Seems the ads blocks for it to render properly....

That makes sense. There's an ad on the right side that only shows up for games that we have no screenshots for (which are likely to be old games).

I have the same issue with IE7, but am not running any pop-up or ad blocker whatsoever.

I Use IE7 and it takes a few extra seconds, but the tabs appear like they should.

Same thing happens on the main page.

Can't say it bothers me.
