Ultimate Driving

The Ultimate Driving Universe on Roblox has been featured time and time again through various egg hunts and as part of an event for a virtual concert and with just under 435 million visits. I haven't been able to find a reliable source for the egg hunts other than fandom entries, so if someone wants to delve into that hole that would be appreciated. I have, however, found a couple news articles on Twenty-one Pilot's virtual concert in 2021 for the release of their "Scaled and Icy" album. Warner Music Group Variety.

It previously covered several games, all prefaced by the word "Ultimate Driving," followed by some name. The most popular by far was Ultimate Driving: Westover Islands, which was later renamed to simply "Ultimate Driving." Other variants include Ultimate Driving: Newark and Ultimate Driving: Odessa. The main premise of the game is that player's play a role in the virtual environment, heavily relying on the use of a vehicle. Roles include as a civilian, police, criminal, firefighter, traffic worker, transport worker, mailman, and a trucker. It can occaisonally feature mild, non-frequent violence depicted by their firearms and as of late has been focusing on their police and criminal mechanics.

I think this is a neat game worthy of inclusion on this list. I am highly confident that this game has previously met Wikipedia's notability standards and therefore does not need to maintain that presently, we just need to uncover all the burried articles from a couple years back when this game was a rager.

so far... the game seems only notable from the 21 pilots event. find more sources and we'll consider it. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 08:07, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

add guts and blackpowder?

guts and blackpowder is a game on roblox set in the Napoleonic wars where instead if fighting other soldiers there are zombies it has become somewhat popular and i think it should be on this list i will put the link to the official G&B here if someone would like to read it to get a better idea of the game to add it to the page sorry i could not get the link working Timetocheese (talk) 01:09, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Need multiple reliable sources. Miraheze and other Wikis are not reliable per WP:USERG. -- ferret (talk) 02:11, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The miraheze wiki is the OFFICIAL G&B wiki, It has a bunch of info on G&B and its game play. There might not be a lot but it still has ENOUGH info. Thomasthetankenginefan123 (talk) 15:16, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A wiki contains user generated content - did you read the WP:USERG link above? Along with other self-published sources WP:SPS it is unlikely that it would be considered a reliable source WP:RS. Does G&B have, for example, extensive coverage in secondary sources such as nationally-recognised gaming magazines or professional produced/published review sites? 10mmsocket (talk) 15:30, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

do these 2 count? https://www.sportskeeda.com/roblox-news/roblox-guts-blackpowder-features-and-badges and https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VideoGame/GutsAndBlackpowder Thomasthetankenginefan123 (talk) 15:58, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

One is very clearly a wiki - the first clue is in the URL, the second in the "Login" and "History" links on the page. However, sportskeeda.com is more like what I'm talking about - a gaming website which appears on the face of it to be published by a company with perhaps some editorial control and by more than one person. BUT... when you search the archives at WP:RSN and see if it is listed at WP:RSNP you find that indeed it is listed on the latter and is tagged as

Generally unreliable / questionable. 10mmsocket (talk) 17:17, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

while it is called a wiki only the devs of the game can edit it Timetocheese (talk) 23:41, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(also btw here's some reason another wiki thingy or smth idk about G&B https://en.namu.wiki/w/Guts%20%26%20Blackpowder Thomasthetankenginefan123 (talk) 15:50, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's a wiki. No it cannot be used for the reasons given above. 10mmsocket (talk) 17:18, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

k Thomasthetankenginefan123 (talk) 14:21, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i know it is a wiki and unreliable i put that there in the meantime until i could find a better source Timetocheese (talk) 23:38, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

VeggieTales “RP”

Where is it? 2603:7000:6E3B:9266:112D:A638:C2CF:7086 (talk) 00:27, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 29 September 2024

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Per WP:LISTNAME. (closed by non-admin page mover) Safari Scribe^{Edits! Talk!} 07:48, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of Roblox games → List of notable Roblox games – Despite its tagging as a dynamic list and the title implying that it is a comprehensive list of Roblox games, this page is instead intended to outline a few notable games which do not meet criteria for a full page. Therefore, this should probably be renamed as such, especially given that the inclusion criteria for games that can be added to this page need be notable themselves. This page also goes beyond the standard list format which would usually just use bullets or tables. FamiliarFlareon (talk) 04:01, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Opposed Per WP:LISTNAME. We do not put Wikipedia guidelines/convention into article titles. See the similar List of esports players, which was once moved to "List of notable eSports players" due to its WP:LISTCRIT of only Notable entries. List criteria are used to manage large unwieldy lists and guide their content, but do not change the topic of the list. We don't make self-references to guidelines in our titles. -- ferret (talk) 04:06, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Ferret. λ NegativeMP1 05:38, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

oppose per ferret. every single thing on wikipedia is technically considered notable (unless proven otherwise) so there’s no need to say that something, like a list of cat breeds, is notable. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 03:10, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ADD SOLS RNG

Sols rng is a semi-popular Roblox game.I'm not that good at finding sources but i still wanna request this game. 96.23.184.24 (talk) 16:42, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request adding The Strongest Battleground

I found The Strongest Battleground has gone popular these days. Can we add this game to list with reliable sources? EpikAccount (talk) 03:21, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Add Stepford County Railway

Add it or else I will add SCR references on all British rail trains that are featured in SCR, starting with the HST. HansTheExplorer (talk) 10:30, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And I, in turn, will block you for vandalism. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 14:32, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see that this childish approach has contributed to HansTheExplorer's permanent block. Wikipedia is a better place now. 10mmsocket (talk) 19:21, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Probably add Opposer VR

Opposer VR is a VR experimental shooter on Roblox. It has over 20 million visits and is one of the most popular VR roblox shooters out there. It has a pretty good community despite not being updated in a while and has been raising in popularity recently. Westboii Lolz (talk) 15:52, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. So read WP:WTAF and once you have a decent well-referenced article about Opposer VR we can add it to the list. 10mmsocket (talk) 15:55, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My bad, I'm quite inexperienced.

Something like this:

Opposer VR is an experimental VR shooter where players start with 2 gamemodes to choose from: Traitor Trouble, and Free For All. In Traitor Trouble, players are chosen to be 1 of 3 types: Innocent, where their goal is to survive and kill the Traitors - Traitors, where their goal is to kill everyone except for their kind - and the Detective, where their goal is to kill all the Traitors and protect the Innocents. In Free For All, the assumed goal is to get 1st place on the leaderboard. The game has over 20 million views and 100+ daily players.

Probably cut out the clutter and add some things. Westboii Lolz (talk) 20:08, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You missed on major thing - independent references that show the game is notable. Look at how the other games in the article are referenced. But not blogs, not wikis, nothing self published in fact - see WP:SPS and WP:UGC. We need quality references from reliable sources WP:RS. 10mmsocket (talk) 06:17, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
