Due to the Silksong mania today, IB community member @hereisasine@mstdn.games asks: When does a video game actually become a part of the backlog?
Is it when you buy it? First play it? Play other games before beating it? Chime in!

Infinite Backlog user Luzuka curated a list of video games with Unforgettable OSTs (original sound tracks).
User-curated lists are a community favorite feature. We love seeing the list ideas our community comes up with!
What would you add (or remove) from this list?
We've published our Dev Update #10 with some incredible news about the progress our hard-working gaming community has made on filling in missing video game data in the IGDB database.
A huge community effort—all for the love of the hobby and helping people keep track of their collections 🩷
One thing we don't talk much about is our user-generated game reviews. We have a huge library of reviews, and would love to see you add yours!
You can view reviews or add your own on our Reviews page!
IB Community member Vasharal asks:
"What's Your #1 Backlog Management Tip?"
Their pro tip? "My personal favorite tip is to focus your energy on one main game at a time. Pick one main game you really want to tackle and focus hard on it. If you feel the need to play a second game, choose one that offers something your main game doesn’t.
Chime in!
Saturday is here! What are you playing this weekend?
