hi. i always have a hard time choosing what game to play out of my collection. i have too many games to choose from and never can decide what to pick up and put in the system. i am sure im not alone.
my suggestion, if its possible, is make a generator or something on 'my collection' page to where it will randomly select a game for you to play. and not only randomly choosing from your whole collection but make it to where you can choose for what system, just randomly pick a game thats for that system. like on the 'my profile' page where you guys have every game organized for each system. make it to where you can either randomly choose a game from the whole collection or from whichever system you choose. you could even add...when you beat the game it has chosen for you, or you have already beat games before using the 'random game selector' you can mark it as 'beat' or something to where it will only choose games that you havent already completed.
if this is possible, it would be really neat to have. and useful, atleast for me. what do you guys think?

We've been planning a project that will allow you to track the games you've beaten, and it would probably be pretty easy to add a random game feature. We have several other projects that we are concentrating on first though, mainly the site redesign, but when we start figuring out the details for this project, we'll try to incorporate your idea. Thanks for the suggestion!

What he said.
Additionally, we currently don't have a true image search on the site. We do not want to have random anything unless the random something can have an image, so we have to work on that first. Unfortunately, there are so many projects going on that such work could be quite a bit off.

So, what you are looking for, is a link that you click that will pop up a box that says "Play [TITLE] for the [CONSOLE]. You know you want to," or something similar? If that is the case that is probably rather doable, but right now the two main programmers of the site are busy with a rather large project that hopefully will be completed in a month.

It seems that that is exactly what he is looking for.
Randomly choose one game from all the games in your collection.
Or randomly choose one game from the console of your choice.
If the site ran of QBasic, VB, C# or a couple other prog lanuages i tinkered with i could totally do this for you lol
EDIT
Also i find the ability to keep track of games you have already beaten to be an awesome idea.
Then it would almost completely give me no reason to use my personal thread.

something cool i just thought of. traderjake was mentioning about something that generated an image. well i was thinking. how about a random generator that picked games from your collection and displayed a picture of the game and asked you to rate it for the rating thing on here. its like those n( . )( . )die picture rating sights... but for gamers. that would be kinda cool since we are on the whole random generator topic.

Wow, is that the best metaphor you could come up with?

Once we have a true image search, I can assure you that there will be a random game or piece of hardware showing up on the front page / news pages. We need the true image search though so that we can knowingly select an entry that has an image rather than having to pull a lot of IDs and manually and time consumingly going through and finding one with an image.
As for the initial request, perhaps the Black Perl could program a link or something that does a "Play this game" alert or saying into the collection tools?
