CounterSpy (software) → CounterSpy (security software) – CounterSpy (video game) is also software. Compare Talk:Dune (mathematics software), Talk:Apprentice (Magic: The Gathering software), etc. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:07, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I don't think there is much risk of confusion. Video games are rarely referred to as "software" these days, despite technically being such. It's more of a relic from the days when games were thought of as "just another piece of software" rather than their own entertainment genre. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:09, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have also added a hatnote in the article, since it was lacking one. I think it's sufficient to differentiate them for anyone who incorrectly goes there. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:11, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
