Rename

Why not rename to "PlayStation 3 Exclusives" or something like that.

"-only games" seems a bit childish, what do others think?

Re: proposed merge with parent category

Due to the lack of concensus in the discussion here: [1], and several users feeling that all-inclusion would be preferable, and indeed in line with WP:SUBCAT ("When an article is put into a subcategory based on an attribute that is not the first thing most people would think of to categorise it, it should be left in the parent category as well"), I will begin including all games in this sub-category in the parent category too, and also add any relevant titles I notice along the way to this sub-cat also. If anyone has any reason for objecting, please note here or on my talk page. Thanks, Miremare 18:52, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think it should be merged.Xplosneer 01:10, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Games from Playstation Network

The games that are not remakes and are published on the Playstation Network, do we consider them as Playstation 3-only games or not. I am asking this because Bean23 is removing all PSN games from this subcategory and compares them with XBox Live Arcade. --193.75.228.252 17:29, 12 July 2007 (UTC) Forgot to log in --Stef Nighthawk 17:52, 12 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Broader definition of PS3-only.

I found this recent change on the XBox 360-only category page :
Video games in this category have been released exclusively on the Xbox 360, and are not available for purchase or download on other video game consoles, personal computers, or mobile devices. The only exception to this rule is when a game has been ported from the arcade directly to the 360 and no other system.
Can we use the same broader definition in the PS2 and PS3 only pages?--Stef Nighthawk 08:58, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Go ahead and change it. Ideally these should all have the same rules anyway. Miremare 14:57, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What if a game is on both PS2 and PS3 and possibly PSP, but on no other system? Should we include it on the PS2 only and PS3 only lists?

Quantum Theory

Can someone add this game called Quantum Theory? http://www.psxextreme.com/ps3-news/3912.html I don't know how to edit this page, if I click edit, the page doesn't show up, only the introduction.Ffgamera (talk) 07:43, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger

This isn't exclusive. "It will later be released on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in the summer of 2009." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.213.23.119 (talk) 14:20, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3; Free Realms

Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 is not a PS3 exclusive title. The expanded version, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 - Ultimate Edition, is a PS3 exclusive. The name should be changed in the PS3 exclusive list so as to not bring about any confusion. Free Realms is also not a PS3 exclusive, as it may be played on either the PC or PS3. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.71.255.229 (talk) 04:24, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Gomibako

the game "Gomibako" should be added to the list. i wont take action because i'll probably mess something up.

Still exclusive if on PS2 or PSP

I would like to suggest that we add games that are exclusive to Playstation even if they are on more than one Playstation console (ie on PS2,PS3 and PSP). MLB_09_The_Show is only on Playstation, and one of the best PS3 games out there. It is far better than Major_League_Baseball_2K9 which is available on about any platform. Even though MLB_09_The_Show is not only on PS3, but on PS2 and PSP, I still think it should be on the list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kcushing (talk • contribs) 15:34, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Journey (Video Game) links to the 1989 computer game

It should link directly to the 2011 video game. I'm not sure how to edit this; it seems like a flaw in the Wikipedia infrastructure since the proper game is tagged, but it decides to link you to the wrong game anyway. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Machineofadream (talk • contribs) 21:13, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hyperlinks

Would someone who has access be willing to fix the way the hyperlinks are formatted? Obviously all the items in this category are PS3 video games, so it seems silly to have "video game" (or something similar) listed after some of the links where there is more than one entry in wikipedia. Changes would be very easy to make following Wikilinks.

[ [a|b] ] gives b (link to a, labeled b)
