Islanders Pc Game

• Nov 07, 2017 This Thursday at my Youtube page at 9 p.m. ET, I'll be livestreaming another Video-cast, previewing the Islanders season to come just one day before opening night. The stream will be viewable here. If you can’t be there, I’ll embed the archive into this post by Friday morning.
• Because those are console focussed game and hence many times they come out later for PC. Same as the case with many Pc focussed games coming out of consoles later like Risen is coming for PC on.

Vincent Trocheck batted a loose puck out of the air and into the net early in overtime and the Carolina Hurricanes ended a four-game losing streak, beating the New York Islanders 3-2 Saturday.

Review articles and critiquing articles[edit]

This page labels any articles assessing a game as a 'review', however other articles exist that are not written as a review of the game overall, but instead highlight and critique certain aspects, such as a summary of what they dislike in particular. As an example, several of these exist in the Red Dead Redemption 2 page which criticize its controls and realism. Are any such articles (provided they are from reliable, third party-sources) eligible to be sourced as they are still technically contributing towards the overall reception of a game? Would they all come under what is determined as a 'review' anyway? -- Wikibenboy94 (talk) 13:41, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

Absolutely. And if you have several from different sources, it probably starts to become a matter of WP:DUE to make sure to call that issue out if these sources all have the same point of criticism. Sources in a reception section do not have to be strictly 'reviews', only that the articles are providing commentary on the game product. --Masem (t) 15:33, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

Another edge case for platforms[edit]

See Teamfight Tactics. TFT is a game mode for League of Legends (available on Win/Mac) and also set to be released as a standalone game for Android and iOS. However, the article for TFT lists all four platforms side by side, with no clear distinction. This edge case does not seem to be covered by our guides on platform listings, so how should it be handled? IceWelder [✉] 15:32, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Because I just installed the LoL games on my computer only the other day, I think the way to explain this is that the PC client consists of a top level launcher which includes the player management aspects, and then when you are ready to actually play LoL or TFT you are launching a second standalone executable. That is, while layman's terms its a gamemode of LoL, TFT is really a standalone client, so as it is presented is just fine, though you should explain a bit more in prose about the TFT being part of the LoL package. --Masem (t) 16:59, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

So basically LoL and TFT share a Riot launcher, much like Hearthstone and Overwatch share a Blizzard launcher, right? Ben · Salvidrim!✉ 19:09, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Dealing with games released first time for a platform in a collection[edit]

Top Video Game

So with news this week of a few 2K series coming to the Switch, we end up with some interesting situations, but let's take an easy example where we have BioShock 2, which was originally released on PC/Mac, Xbox 360, and PS3. Then the BioShock Collection came out where a remastered version for the PS4 and Xbox One was released, but only as part of BioShock: The Collection Then with this news this week, the Switch is getting both the standalone BioShock 2 as well as BioShock: The Collection.

At minimum, the list of platforms for the infobox on BioShock 2 should clearly be PC/Mac, PS3, Xbox 360, and Switch, but now would we consider this game released for the PS4 and Xbox One to be listed there? I had added language to the MOS but have since taken it out that suggests 'no we shouldn't' on the same basis we shouldn't do that if this was a released based on emulation and that it gives the false impression that the game is available as a standalone title for the PS4/Xbox One from the Infobox alone. (The lede and body can mention the collection of course). But on challenge of this, technically the game is available in a non-emulated mode for the PS4/Xbox One.

This is not the only case, but as we move forward with the next-gen consoles coming, we may see more of these case, so it might be good to get a consensus what we should do here. --Masem (t) 00:37, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

I do not see any why infobox should not include, in this example, PS4 and Xbox One becuase fundamentally it is the same game give released as a part of a collection. Furthermore, when readers look at the infobox they likely just want to see what platforms it is avaliable on regardless of it is a part of the collection. In this case (or others like it), it could simply be listed with an efn as seen below:

• If it's a full port and not a remake or emulation, I think it's fine to list the compilation release in the infobox. For instance, the versions of Sonic CD, Sonic the Fighters, and Sonic R included in Sonic Gems Collection for the GameCube and PS2 are native ports of previous versions, so GameCube and PS2 are listed as platforms in the infobox. It's different when it comes to things like Super Mario All-Stars and Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, which are remakes, and Mega Man Legacy Collection and Sega Genesis Colleciton, which are just emulation. JOEBRO64 17:10, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

  Hmm. A related thought occurs. Why do we make a distinction between native ports and emulations? If the end result is you're playing the same game, perhaps with only minor perceptible differences, is this a technical distinction worth reflecting in our infoboxes? Popcornfud (talk) 17:31, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

  Popcornfud, I think the primary reason against emulated releases is because many of them would just include every platform imaginable due to how widespread their emulated ports are (think of Sonic 1). A native port also shows more effort from the developer in putting the game on the platform than just including a ROM within an emulator, if that matters. ~ Dissident93^(talk) 21:56, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

  Yeah, basically once you have 'emulation' that means that a game can run on a virtual machine, and thus just a material of which platforms support that virtual machine which could be endless. Ports typically do not have that factor, they are written directly to the platform (generally, there are exceptions, like Digital Eclipse's work but those are commercial packages). --Masem (t) 22:02, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
