List of video games based on licensed properties

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Arbitrary, incomplete and very crufty. Is it really nessacary to have a list with every video game based on every movie or franchise out there? Perhaps merge each section with the appropriate franchise article it is based on? Rackabello 17:50, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete all as listcruft but consider turning some into categories. Category:Video games based on comics is no more or less useful than Category:Films based on biographies. Thin Arthur 09:00, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Split I have been working on splitting this in line with other similar lists - in particular Lists of films. It has a well defined remit (or the individual entries would have after the parts are split off) and similar lists are useful and well maintained are superior to a category (as they can be well policed - there can be problems without solid policing) see e.g. List of fiction works made into feature films.
