List of Pirates of the Caribbean video games

Well, lets say that some games based on the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise have been released. They have not sold a lot, or being critically acclaimed, but who cares? Their list will be featured :D — ΛΧΣ  21   —  Statυs  ( talk,  contribs ) 05:40, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment by JDC808 I made a very minor copy-edit to the lead, but I have a couple of questions about it.
 * Support - comments addressed. -- JDC808  ♫  19:46, 30 July 2013 (UTC)


 * 1) Why is the first game skipped in the lead? The first sentence tells us what PotC is, then the second tells us that it gained its popularity from the films, then the next sentence skips the first game and talks about the second game.
 * 2) EditorE fixed this and I copy-edited it. -- JDC808  ♫  01:23, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) Why is Disney Infinity included here? There is PotC characters and a playset for it, but it's not a standalone PotC game. This also applies to the list part of this article. I don't really know much about this game, but I feel that I could make the argument that since Infinity is being included here, couldn't Kingdom Hearts II be as well? (I'm not saying to include KH2, just that the argument could be made).
 * EditorE also fixed this in regards to the lead, but not the list. -- JDC808  ♫  01:23, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
 * The premise states that they are "video games focused on the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise". Pirates is a major focus of Infinity, while Hearts is not – it's a very small part of it.  — Statυs  ( talk,  contribs ) 04:00, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm still not in agreeance that it should be included, especially when Infinity's article doesn't make much mention of Pirates other than there being a playset and 3 characters. Of course more info will come later, but at its (Infinity's) current state, it's a bit confusing why it's included here and also the fact that this is called "List of Pirates of the Caribbean video games". -- JDC808  ♫  07:23, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I still do not agree, but I think this is a good compromise.  — Statυs  ( talk,  contribs ) 04:04, 29 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, sounds good. I posted at Hahc21's talk page saying if it is kept, or now readded, there should be a mention for why it's included (since Pirates is not in its name and could be confusing to someone for why it's included). -- JDC808  ♫  19:46, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) In regards to the list, although it was cancelled, shouldn't Armada of the Damned be before Lego? -- JDC808   ♫  08:16, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'll fix the rest soon. I've been very sick this week and thus have reduced my wiki editing a bit. Sorry. Cheers. — ΛΧΣ  21  05:14, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
 * The para in the section should be moved into the intro, and the section renamed to "List". Nergaal (talk) 19:30, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
 * No. Not standard. — ΛΧΣ  21  23:05, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Although nice, not a requirement for FLC. So there's nothing needing "resolving".  — Statυs  ( talk,  contribs ) 16:33, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay. Support : Good job on meeting every single criteria for FLC! SoapFan12 16:50, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
