[edit] Deletion discussion

Articles for deletion This article was nominated for deletion on July 15, 2006. The result of the discussion was no consensus.

[edit] KEEP THE HEADING/DISCUSSION ON THIS LIST

This is primarily addressed to Ragnarok Addict, who deleted this list's introduction 2 wks ago. After RA deleted the intro describing how to identify CD-ROM games and why the list is useful, a handful of additions were made by careless users. I believe ALL these additions WERE ERRONEOUS (DVD games!). I know this because I own nearly all the games added and they are definitely not on CD-ROM.

Another good reason to keep the introduction is because this list survived a somewhat contentious Articles For Deletion request and that introduction was very useful in justifying this listing.

I will fetch the old list introduction later today and re-add it. If someone wants it deleted, first DISCUSS it on this page! Thanks. Rory77 21:52, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 2006.10.08 game removals

I removed all games added by two anonymous users recently since AT LEAST 50% of the games are verified as massive games on DVD (50 Cent Bulletproof, GTA San Andreas, etc). Here are the removed games, I crossed out those which I know with certainty are on DVD:

[edit] Biohazard Code: Veronica

Someone please confirm whether this JP game is actually CD-ROM. It seems strange since the US & EU versions are on DVD and are based on the Dreamcast 'COMPLETE' version which is on 2 GD-ROMS (equivalent to 3 CD-ROMs!)

[edit] Notes & Questions on this list.. (After studying EACH edit since list creation)

  • I removed Championship Surfer because: A game by this name was released on PS1. A PS2 version was ANNOUNCED, but according to various sites CANCELED. So this can't really be called a CD-ROM game. (Sunny Garcia Surfing was apparently the sequel to the PS1 game and took its place and is ON THE LIST)

DUPLICATES ON ORIGINAL LIST:

  • ESPN X-Games Skateboarding & X-Games Skateboarding (ONLY USA) (done)
  • Sega Superstars & Eye Toy: Sega Superstars (done)

OTHER:

  • Mister Mosquito was released as "KA" in JP (added)

WERE THESE VALIDLY REMOVED??:

  • Sega Ages 2500 Vol.18: Dragon Force <<POSSIBLY INADVERTENT, the OTHER 18 games in this series remain on list!>>
  • High Heat Major League Baseball 2004 (yes, was a DUPLICATE entry removed by Ragnarok Addict, see below)
  • Jurassic Park Operation Genesis <Questionable, done by Kungfuadam before closing "prod" to delete article>
  • MX World Tour (yes, was a DUPLICATE entry removed by Ragnarok Addict, see below)
  • RPG Maker 2 (yes, was a DUPLICATE entry removed by Ragnarok Addict, see below)

UNCERTAINTY I'm requesting assistance verifying whether the following added games (most done anonymously) are on CD-ROM & in labeling the REGIONS that are:

OTHER: (add separate section for these utilities/addons CDs) (DONE)

  • DVD Remote It had drivers for the DVD drive and was bundled with the offical Sony Remote
  • Final Fantasy XI & PlayOnline and Tetra Master disks
  • HDD Utility Disk

[edit] Ragnarok Addict additions 2006.06.11 & 12

Ragnarok Addict added the below games in a single massive edit. ARE THESE MOSTLY EUROPEAN? PLEASE UPDATE THESE GAMES AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. At least 2 are NOT CD-ROM in US version.

TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE THESE 6 GAMES ARE ONLY JAPANESE
(US version appends International to title & EU version is Pro Evolution Soccer with "#" minus 4):
