If you’re anything like me, you probably have stacks of games that are taking up precious space in your home, blocking the view of your twelve foot shrine to the goddess of destruction, Kali. OK, maybe your place doesn’t look exactly like mine (my interior decorator was Mola Ram from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom) but you could still probably use the extra space.

Well, throw those old games in a sacrificial lava pit, because Vigster is the latest website to offer a virtual showcase for your favorite games, plus links to reviews and other information.

Vigster wants to be the “IMDB for Games”, a sort of social networking/ information database crossover. As you can see from the image above, classic games such as Battlefield 2, British Airports, and Awaiting Cover are all represented on the virtual shelf. Awaiting Cover would be an awesome name for a cover-based shooter, wouldn’t it?

The site is still brand new, so it’s lacking a lot of information. But feel free to get on there, start making some friends, and show off your collection without giving up an inch of real space.
