North American release dates?

edit

For the release dates in the table, will we be using the North American ones? What about for games that are published separately for each console? Like, a game might be released for Xbox in 2005 and then ported to PlayStation 2 in 2006, and then maybe to PC in 2008. DrAndrewWinters (talk) 03:51, 27 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Since Take-Two is an American company, I think it makes sense to go with North American release dates. When a game is released on more than one platform, there should be an entry for each platform, so that the "platform" column in the table can be sorted. The games are listed chronologically, so if a game came out in 2005 for Xbox and 2006 for PlayStation, list them separately. There are a few games like that already in the table, like Sid Meier's Pirates and L.A. Noire. – Zntrip 05:31, 27 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
Once again, thank you so much for expanding my article. People like you are revolutionizing video game history, and at the very least, providing more ways for gamers to get information about their favorite video game companies. As for the release date issue, I agree. Good idea. We could address it at the top of the article with a note indicating the North American release dates. I'll do that.

Thanks for the kind words, but it's really not a big deal. With your help, this list will turn out great once finished, but there is quite a bit more work to do. If you have any concerns or questions about editing, please feel free to contact me. – Zntrip 20:16, 27 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for pointing that out, it's now taken care of. – Zntrip 23:25, 5 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Color coding

edit

While I'm all in favor of color coding of tables, it's usually more useful if it uses only two to three colors. Any more than that, and you run the risk of just making it more confusing and harder to use. This table uses nine colors. I'm not color blind, but I can see the possibility that this list is impossible to read for some users, especially because of some of the darker colors. Plus, the colors present information that is already included in one of the columns (the publisher). Can we nix the color coding of this table? I don't see it as a benefit in this case. — Frεcklεfσσt | Talk 15:27, 12 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

I'm all for removing the colours, and think you could probably be bold and do so without much argument. Sam Walton (talk) 16:12, 4 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
I don't mind colors in general, but the way it is now is ugly. I don't oppose removing all color as the easiest way to fix it...but I wouldn't oppose it if people wanted to re-add a better color scheme in the future either. Just not this one. Sergecross73 msg me 17:09, 4 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the responses, Sam Walton and Sergecross73. I don't oppose color-coding it either, but, as I stated above, I don't think color-coding it for publishers is very useful (or aesthetic). If someone wants to re-introduce a better color-scheme for some other purpose, such as the one used here, I wouldn't oppose it. I acted on Sam Walton's advice and just removed all the color-coding. We'll see if anyone complains. — Frεcklεfσσt | Talk 17:19, 4 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
I've just looked at the old revision and I concur with Sergecross73 that it's just unpleasant. Specifically, the colors are too saturated and dark. Tezero (talk) 17:30, 4 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • Color-coding publishers is not very useful since the info is right in the column, and you can't quickly glance down the list anyways since the legend is huge. So, no colors for publishers under any color scheme. --Odie5533 (talk) 18:18, 4 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Take-Two Interactive Games

edit

The games Hell: A Cyberpunk Thriller and Bureau 13 are listed as GameTek developed games, but in fact they are developed by Take-Two Interactive and published by GameTek. Do we change the developer to Take-Two Interactive? — Preceding unsigned comment added by YouHateThePlayer (talkcontribs) 18:48, 14 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

It was my understanding that Sega published NFL 2K5 (and it's actually titled "ESPN NFL 2K5". Sega is on the game cover. I can't find "Global Software" anywhere. This is one that may need some investigation. ~2K Player~

Split

edit

This article desperately needs to be split, it's exceeding 400kB of almost entirely text. I propose an A-L, M-Z split like other lists of games. Rob3512 chat? what I did 09:31, 26 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Rob3512, definetly in favor of a split, but I'd argue that it would make more sense to split by publishing label than by alphabet. List of games by Rockstar Games, already exists, so we could also have List of 2K games, List of Private Division games, List of Gathering of Developers games, and so forth. Lordtobi () 10:49, 26 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Yes, that sounds like a better idea. Rob3512 chat? what I did 10:53, 26 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
@YouHateThePlayer: Would you be up to do this? I think the first important step would be to extract 2K-published games to its own list and remove 2K and Rockstar games from this list here (Rockstar already has its own games article). Lordtobi () 14:26, 7 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
I agree. Every time I edit this page to put a new game or a reference it takes so much time... I'll start on 2K then. — Preceding unsigned comment added by YouHateThePlayer (talkcontribs) 19:10, 8 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
