List of video games with plot twists[edit]

Let's Delete this one for the same reasons found at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of films with plot twists: hopelessly POV, unwieldy list that can easily be categorized, the plot twist can be better noted in each article, has about as much utility as a list of video games with male protagonists, etc. -- Thesquire (talk - contribs) 04:07, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe we can merge it with "List of Deleted articles about 'List of (x) with plot twists'".--み使い Mitsukai 04:11, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Wouldn't this be every video game ever created? FCYTravis 04:17, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I don't think Pac-Man or Pong have any plot twists, but I could be mistaken. -- Thesquire (talk - contribs) 04:22, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There's a plot twist in Donkey Kong? ☺ Uncle G 04:22, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - Those barrels, in the SECRET HIDDEN BARREL LEVEL, actually start helping you. Or maybe that was when I played Donkey Kong on LSD. FCYTravis 04:27, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    - So that's what the "How High Can You Get?" meant... --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 13:51, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per FCY. Royboycrashfan 04:20, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete unless somebody explains why this discussion should be in the List of plot twists in AfD discussions on lists with plot twists. Kusma (討論) 04:33, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete with plot twist --Alan Au 05:10, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. *drew 05:42, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as this describes pretty much every game. Cyde Weys 05:46, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
delete nonsense. This is getting ridiculous. -Zero^Talk 07:10, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. At this state, this list is useless as it doesn't explain what counts as a plot twist. I could add PONG in there, with as much explanation of its plot twists as any of the other games have. JIP | Talk 07:28, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, bad list. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-02-03 13:07Z
Delete, this list can never be maintained. A bad one indeed. --Ter e nc e Ong (恭喜发财) 13:52, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete with fear that a bizarre plot twist will somehow save it from its fate.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sethimothy (talk • contribs) 08:02, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
Keep this article... and the plot twist is that I actually mean Delete listcruft, mwa ha ha!--Isotope23 21:10, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- LMAO, nice one. --Cyde Weys 22:15, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Yeah, what a great idea - let's pick a topic for a list so we can list every. Single. Game. Since. 1990. And start building it from some new-school whatever-duhs. Well, the thing is, great lists aren't made like this! --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 01:29, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per wwwwolf. It's as redundant as List of 24 episodes with Jack Bauer. --Kinu 04:42, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Pointless and unmanagable. Ben W Bell 20:48, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as unencyclopedic and irreconcilably POV. It could also be considered to be a list that is unmaintainable or of interest to very few people, i.e. listcruft. Stifle 01:21, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, a useless and unmaintainable list. Might as well have a List of videogames! Grandmasterka 07:41, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
