- Near future in video gaming (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
A list of mostly uncited speculative "near future" releases in an arbitrarily chosen entertainment genre. I don't think 2010 is "near future", and there does not appear to be any reliable independent definition of what constitutes near future, so this is just a gathering ground for WP:CRYSTAL.

- Note: This debate has been added to the list of video game related deletions. MrKIA11 (talk) 20:59, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Crystalballery. JuJube (talk) 21:20, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and rename to "List of upcoming video games". It needs to be reliably sourced and maintained. Each game should have been announced by a reliable, third-party publication, and removed from the list if it has not. I don't think it should be deleted; it just needs more references, a good lead section, and someone to keep out speculation. SunDragon34 (talk) 21:34, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and rename: List of unreleased games in development, or something like that. This is a discriminate list. It's not WP:CRYSTAL so much as documenting a current event. For example, list of ongoing conflicts. This article can be verified. Randomran (talk) 21:46, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and move as Randorman and SunDragon34 suggested. It definitely is discriminate. However, whoever edits this must be aware that unverified future games on that list can be a la carte removed due to WP:CBALL. MuZemike (talk) 22:43, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and rename per Randomran and Sundragon. --Hazillow (talk) 03:00, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I got this idea from Near future in film which was nominated for deletion and later the page was moved to 2010s in film. I have the same plan for this article to move to 2010s in video gaming when December 2008 arrives. So that 2009 games can be moved to 2009 in video gaming. I got so many good ideas from such articles. Also it is a great place to list so many games which has not released or the release date further. Instead of searching for every game in category which is a tough job. This article makes job easier. Iam doing my best to cite each of them. Most of them have articles so the information can be seen there.--SkyWalker (talk) 04:53, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and rename 'Near future' is such a wish-washy and vague terms (I for one don't consider 2010 to be the near future!), and not one that people are likely to look for. The content is fine; if the games are notable/reliable/verifiable enough for their own article, then the list can't really not be as well. Split to 'List of upcoming video games' as suggested earlier. --Ged UK (talk) 15:34, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, perfectly suitable list that allows navigation of many already existing articles. --Reinoutr (talk) 17:26, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
