richter Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 Anyone here use Raptr? I'm curious about your experience with them. If you're not familiar: Raptr is the Social Platform for People Who Like to Play and Discover GamesRaptr lets you know instantly when your friends are playing, whether they're playing on the PC, Xbox Live, Mac, Steam, Flash games, World of Warcraft, Xfire, and many other games and platforms. Raptr can also automatically notify your friends on Facebook, Twitter, and Friendfeed that you're playing. They put a social spin (sound familar?) on gaming, so like you can manage your collection, make a wishlist, connect with friends, and they have a client you can download that tracks the games you've been playing. Anyway, would like to read your thoughts if you've used the site before, and if not, your thoughts after looking Quote
anosou Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 Looks pretty decent! I don't play nearly enough online games though, console gamer that I am, but I might give this a try. Quote

UPDATE: Man with this, and Netvibe's Facebook Connect, I'm more embedded into Facebook than ever. I just wish PS3 had a better way to keep up with what you're doing like XBOX360 does (I assume that'll come in time). All I need now is a Facebook app that'll post my Last.FM tracks RIGHT to my mini-feed (or something similiar) and I'll be soooo good, lol. Quote
Zombie Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 This looks interesting, i'll have to check into it. Quote

I've been browsing the site but I don't get it O.o Also, I'm totally getting Raptr. EDIT: totally got raptr. http://raptr.com/AnotherSoundscape Quote
richter Posted November 15, 2008 Author Posted November 15, 2008 What the hell is that Netvibe thingy? It's an RSS reader like iGoogle or My Yahoo!. You add feeds (like OCR's 10 latest ReMixes or Slashdot News) to your page and it simplifies that data. http://www.netvibes.com/richtaur http://raptr.com/richtaur Friend me or whatever! Quote
prophetik music Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 does it work with altered .exe files for games? the last client i used to track didn't work because it couldn't recognize the game i was playing. Quote
anosou Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 does it work with altered .exe files for games? the last client i used to track didn't work because it couldn't recognize the game i was playing. It's still in beta so I doubt it but try and if not, just write to the creators I want support for emulators! To bad it's highly illegal .. Edit: Damn games.slashdot.org's rss doesn't work anyone know a good gaming news site with rss? Quote
richter Posted November 21, 2008 Author Posted November 21, 2008 anyone know a good gaming news site with rss? Kotaku: http://feeds.gawker.com/kotaku/full More people join, I want more friends Quote
Liontamer Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 Raptr are fans of the site. SUPPORT! Quote
richter Posted December 2, 2008 Author Posted December 2, 2008 I just accepted a job offer from them Here's to hopefully seeing some OCR integration on Raptr! Quote
anosou Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Fuck it, I'm ressurecting this thread. Raptr is still going strong, it's especially tasty for gamers who mainly play 360 and PC but open to all the rest. I've recently added my entire game collection (almost) too! http://raptr.com/AnotherSoundscape So, make an account. Add some games. Start registering gameplay stats and befriend all the OCR dudes so we can do silly stuff like comparing achievements and game collections. 1.. 2... 3..... GO! Quote

Doulifée Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 you can keep your xfire stat too. that's nice. http://raptr.com/doulifee Quote
Schwaltzvald Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 I'm giving it a shot... http://raptr.com/Schwaltzvald Edit: I'm a bit disappointed it didn't pick up my copies of Silent Hill 2 & 3 for the PC nor a few other games I've lately been hammering. Quote
Bahamut Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 You can add them manually - not that huge of a deal. Also you can estimate how much time you'll be playing and have it marked down on raptr Quote
anosou Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 What Bahamut said. For example I played some Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! today and it's awesomesauce. MOAR PPL ON RAPTR PLZ. Quote
Schwaltzvald Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 How do I go about adding titles? Quote
anosou Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 How do I go about adding titles? Search for them, push the "Add to my games" button. Pretty much. Quote
Schwaltzvald Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 Search for them, push the "Add to my games" button. Pretty much. Still got a few games unable to be found but I suppose that's okay. Quote
