==The Killer List of Videogames== The Killer List of Videogames (KLOV) features an online encyclopedia devoted to cataloging arcade games past and present. The KLOV is the video game department of the International Arcade Museum. The KLOV's online encyclopedia has extensive entries for more than 4,400 machines made from 1971 through the present. Newsweek Magazine called "klov.com, the IMDb [leading database] for players, with titles, photos and dates." The KLOV's encyclopedia has cabinet, control panel and marquee images, screenshots and even 3D models of the machine in some cases. Entries have machine technical information, a game description, cabinet information, lists cheats, tricks and bugs, discusses conversions and gameplay, lists trivia and fix information and discusses the game's legacy (such as sequels or similar games it inspired). Nearly 1000 entries even have the complete technical manual and schematics available for download. Entries in the encyclopedia are heavily weighted for classic arcade games: that is, games released during the Golden Age of Arcade Games. But most arcade games have an entry, though entries for newer games tend to be spotty. The more popular a game was, the more extensive the entry is likely to be. The encyclopedia database is actually a subset of that on the International Arcade Museum's web site, which expands on the video game entries with an additional 9,000 entries on other types of coin-operated machines such as pinball machines, slot machines, vending, trade stimulators, and scales. Key features of the KLOV's web site includes a video game "Machine of the Moment" and a "The Top 100 Videogames" list. The site also hosts message boards where collectors and fans can ask questions and get answers from experts, or buy and sell arcade games and parts. It also publishes news related to arcade games.
