Reliable Source

There's no indication that the reference on listology has any relation to the printed book. The list of games may be removed until a reliable source is found. Rwalker (talk) 19:32, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Purposefully-Incomplete List

When this article does include more sources, should we put an incomplete list of games into it? (Note: incomplete for the sake of copyright.) -017Bluefield (talk) 12:52, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

no, you should put a COMPLETE list of games in this article, cause that was what I was looking for idiot! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.46.252.133 (talk) 17:38, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

done, as lists of facts are not copyrightable. Shaddim (talk) 21:02, 30 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like the current list is from the updated version (ISBN-13: 978-1844037667) since it includes games released after the release date of the book — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:79E0:2:0:7808:7C7E:67C8:22C9 (talk) 13:16, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

GTA V

Wouldn't this list need an update? Since it's the 2013-list it lacks games like the one mentioned above... I guess that it would be in the list (I'm sure) if it was more up to date. Oxygene7-13 (talk) 12:17, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Publisher Names as Developer Names

I've noticed that the list has the names of the Publishers as the Developers for the games. For example, Banjo-Kazooie was developed by Rare games and published by Nintendo. Why is this the case? Should it all be changed? TeaKadaRaja (talk) 10:32, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
