Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Computer and video games/To Fix

Wow..that's a lot of N64 games! I guess it'll keep me busy... Thunderbrand 04:10, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I've been holding off on doing previous gens for a while, but it appears that most articles (at least the ones I can find) for Xbox, PS2, and GameCube are covered. Please note that not all of these articles, especially the stubs, need images. Also, some of the ones listed here (ex the Nascar one) should be considered for merging into an article on the series. Yearly sports games, at least IMO, should all be merged together in series articles unless of course editors can actually make it more than just a stub and without it being redundant of the previous game in the series.

I was going to add some new titles to this list, but are we not putting infoboxes for older gens like the NES? Once this stupid mess regarding the screenshots/boxart is sorted, maybe we should move this project to Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer and video games/To Fix, and make it more noticable on the project page.

I kind of like having it as a subpage, the way Topbanana has his reports, for example, as a subpage. If you REALLY think it would help, though, you can move it. Andre (talk) 20:34, Jun 25, 2005 (UTC)

Well I don't think moving it will help. However, I do feel that a link should be placed more prominently on the Wikiproject page. Right now it's just a link right at the bottom of the page. I only noticed it was there recently. Jacoplane 21:17, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I've been steadily going back. There aren't that many people that actually do this besides Thunderbrand and myself whenever I feel bored so I haven't been listing a whole lot. A problem arises around the 8-16 bit eras where some (more like "most") games are arcade games. In the event of a game being arcade we usually let that Wikiproject handle it since it's almost an identical infobox, but with more information for the arcade versions. I'd start with PlayStation if you want though. Theres tons of those that need it done. K1Bond007 02:08, Jun 25, 2005 (UTC)

box covers

There are a lot of box covers on this site:

they're watermarked.... Jacoplane 14:08, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Arcade games

I created a section at the bottom called "Arcade games" - this is really so that we can dump computer and video games that are also for the arcade there. As I originally stated earlier, a lot of the 8-16 and even 32 (especially Sega)-bit games are for the arcade and we usually let that Wikiproject handle that. Their infobox, based on ours, isn't quite ready yet so I figure we can put them there for the time being. I really haven't thought this out too much, but it would be best to do this so we can at the very least keep track of which games have been listed here and why they don't have an infobox.

H-L: Decay and HSG

I removed Half-Life: Decay because this isn't a stand-alone game and doesn't really need an infobox. The Hot Shots Golf series page would look too messy with the infoboxes there. Thunderbrand 18:41, August 21, 2005 (UTC)
