Can I access star ratings of every games for a given console?

Hello, I really like the fact that I can use the star ratings to strip down my romsets to a collection of games that are positively rated by the community. I would like to avoid downloading the full PS2 set to see the ratings and then deleting everything that isn't rated good. Same thing for PS1 which I downloaded only the games from the V's recommendations wikia lists. I found some great games that weren't on that list and that are well rated by the community. I would like to be able to see the ratings of all the games of a given console so that I could cherry pick the best games out of the thousand of games.

Thank you for helping out!

Can't sort by star rating, but you can just use the GamesDB to look at the games in our DB and their star rating and then pick out the games based on that.

This is kinda time consuming though! Someone shared an app here on the forum. It parses the xml with all the games and let you sort by rating. I found it after so I had found another way around which might work for someone else.

Basically you download a torrent with the fullest and set qbittorrent to pre allocate files. Even if it’s at 0.01% you can stop the torrent and all the roms will be there with their correct name.zip. These can all be imported just like if you had the games. Basically LB can’t tell they’re pre allocate dummy files.

Since I kept only like an hundred or 2 it was easy to check them in qbittorrent and only download the ones I want.
