Answer 1

Please for the love of legibility, use single quotes when using a large amount of double quotes in the string, and concatenate your variables. Otherwise you end up with loads of \ in your string and it will be harder to spot variables:

echo '  <tr>
            <td>
                <a href="'.$row['link'].'">
                    <img src="'.$row['image'].'" title="'.$row['game'].'" width="68" height="57" />
                </a>
            </td>
            <td>
                <a href="'.$row['link'].'">'.$row['game'].'</a>
            </td>
            <td>'.$row['total'].'</td>
        </tr>';
