[edit] Comments
I'm not 100% satisfied with this template, but it represents a compromise. I'd like the template to italicize the game title automatically, but if it did, then I couldn't use it for series as well. Also the "id" portion is a bit longer than I'd like, but that is due to MobyGame's categoriztion methods. For example, they have one "dos" section and another "nes" section and so on. So, in order to work for all games, everything after "game" in the URL has to be included. I'd appreciate any feedback on ways to improve it.
Once this template is finalized, I can create other template for developer "rap sheets" and video game publishers & developers at MobyGames. I created this one first since I think games are what it is most widely used for. — Frecklefoot | Talk 19:11, Apr 26, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] slash unnecessary
The slash "/" is unnecessary since just linking to the the game name (i.e. "tomb-raider") will go to the main game page that links to the various platform-specific pages. I propose this template is edited to take that into account, or a new template created. ∞ΣɛÞ² (τ|c) 08:21, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
