Chronology of PlayStation games
There are approx 8000 Playstation games in existence. Taken to it's logical conclusion, this list will comprise 8000 entries ordered by month/year of release. Bloated, incompleteable list of indiscriminate info. Delete exolon 18:33, 27 September 2006 (UTC) Note that "which release to place a title under" is clearly stated at the top of the article: first release anywhere in the world. That's not POV or ambiguous. I'm not generally fond of lists, but if we were to delete just one list of PSX games, it should be List of PlayStation 1 games, not this. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 22:05, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete: Not because of its length, or almost definete always-incompleteness. Rather, I can't see a NPOV way to choose which release to place a title under -- first release, first English release if it got one, etc. Also, the fact it's a duplicate of List of Playstation games just rearranged adds to the fact. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ 19:47, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete This article also has alot of red links. --Tarret 21:07, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep: this seems to be considerably more useful than List of PlayStation 1 games, which is largely redundant to Category:PlayStation games (it contains very little information not in the category, not even including cross-references from alternative titles). This list, on the other hand, does organise its contents in a different way from the category, giving it at least some purpose in existence.
 * Keep It may be a long list, but it's not indiscriminate, and it's fully completeable. How POV even comes up, I don't know.  FrozenPurpleCube 03:40, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep with the same reason I gave in the PS2 chronology AfD: sorts in a way not redundant to the category. Furthermore, I don't see any POV issues at all if the list is using initial release date anywhere in the world as stated at the top of the article. BryanG(talk) 04:23, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * keep useful and maintainable (probably almost complete) list. &mdash; brighterorange  (talk) 19:15, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to List of Playstation games. The release-date information here is marginally more useful than merely listing the names, but we don't really need two separate lists, do we? --Alan Au 20:29, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge This list is long, but not indiscriminate and provides useful info the category cannot. it does seem uneccessarily redundant witht he list of PlayStation games, though. Ace of Sevens 06:13, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
