Using a badly configured (or badly written) browser add-on for blocking content.

Running a 'scraper' or 'downloader' program that either does not identify itself or uses fake headers to elude detection.

Using a script or add-on that scans GameFAQs for box and screen images (such as an emulator front-end), while overloading our search engine.

There is no official GameFAQs app, and we do not support nor have any contact with the makers of these unofficial apps. Continued use of these apps may cause your IP to be blocked indefinitely. This triggers our anti-spambot measures, which are designed to stop automated systems from flooding the site with traffic.

Some unofficial phone apps appear to be using GameFAQs as a back-end, but they do not behave like a real web browser does.

Using GameFAQs regularly with these browsers can cause temporary and even permanent IP blocks due to these additional requests.

If you are using Maxthon or Brave as a browser, or have installed the Ghostery add-on, you should know that these programs send extra traffic to our servers for every page on the site that you browse.

The most common causes of this issue are:

EARTH DEFENSE FORCE 4.Your IP address has been temporarily blocked due to a large number of HTTP requests.

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re Birth3 V Generation.

Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch.1 Onikakushi.

If you arrived here from a PC Gamer article, I suggest you check the Python source code and one of these rankings: Contradiction - the all-video murder mystery adventure (appID=373390).To reproduce the results, use data downloaded between June 19 and June 23 (found in my initial commit to Github), with alpha ~ 10^(6.45), which arises from an optimization with 1 example of 'hidden gem': The Python source code can be found on Github.

Finally, here is a reference to the NeoGAF post explaining the method, and the NeoGAF post explaining the idea behind the optimization of the only free parameter. The quality measure comes from SteamDB and the popularity measure comes from SteamSpy API. Therefore, the score of a game is defined as the product of a quality measure (its Wilson score) and a decreasing function of a popularity measure (its players total forever). A 'hidden gem' is defined as a high-quality game (hence the 'gem') which only got little attention (hence 'hidden'). This post contains a ranking of Steam games, based on a score intended to favor 'hidden gems'.
