New Listal Feature: Search by Game Platform

Tom announced this for us Mods because it helps in finding the correct games to merge, but I guess everyone else should know this as well ;)

When searching for a game, cick on the drop down arrow, and instead of just Games, you can now filter your search by any of the Top 10 platform (PC Games, PS2, PS, Xbox, etc..)

example: Searching for 'mario' but only on Nintendo Wii platform

http://www.listal.com/search/games/1/?query=mario&platform=nintendo%20wii

And for all other platforms (say trying to find a rare Amiga or Arcade game, try the search using any of the top platforms, and then rename the URL after &platform= to suit the platform you're looking for. Use a plus sign (or %20 also works) in lieu of spaces for platforms with multiple words.

example: &platform=sega+genesis+and+mega+drive

Tom, just a suggestion to make this feature more known: what if search result for games results in 2 or more page (20+ items), you either add a 'Tip' reminder at top of search results that search by specific platforms is available in drop down options, or have links to 'filter by' and then list off the top platforms? This way if someone searches for a term that gives too much info, like 'Tom Clancy's', they can quickly be pointed to how to better filter down the results.
