Talk:Interplay Entertainment

message: Should we include games Interplay has developed or at one time published but no longer has the rights to OR should we only put down games that Interplay owns on the right right bar for known products. Clearly Fallout/Planescape are the most known Interplay products of yester year but Interplay does not own either one now days. If we include things Interplay does not own -- would we include Star Trek in the games list? See the problem.  Of course we could just leave it as it is and go with whats associated w/ Interplay at a glance. If so we need to add IceWind Dale back to that list.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.81.94.75 (talk) 17:02, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Games List 

message: Shouldn't the article's title be "Interplay Entertainment Corp."? The "Corp." is part of their name (eg.), and using Apple, Inc as precedent for the use of abbreviations in a title for companies' names. That title on the Apple article drops the period at the end of the abbreviation, but it's still valid precedent. Should this be moved to the correct namespace?

replies: text: No. Per WP:COMMONNAME, the most succinct common version is preferable over the "correct" version. Apple, Inc was moved only because Apple Computer is less commonly-used now that said company's primary revenue stream is no longer personal computers.

message: And does the list only include internally developed games or as games published?--Craigboy (talk) 07:46, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Which list are you referring to?  The list in the article (which is just announced upcoming games) or the list provided via the wikilink?  The list just includes games that other editors thought to add, or games that already have articles.  Obscure games are unlikely to make it on the list, since they had very little impact.  You can always augment the list if you like. — Frεcklεfσσt | Talk 13:29, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of products severely incomplete 

message: Wow, they managed to generate net income ($1.03 million) in 2010? They must be selling some game rights for hefty sums --Infestor (talk) 03:29, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: They sell a lot of the old titles via Steam, Good Old Games, and they have a few newer products out like MDK2 remastered.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.81.94.70 (talk) 15:25, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Interplay just released Descent 1 and Descent 2 on Steam.  They sell most of their back catalog games on Good Old Games...  They are also working on a role playing game, PV13 and are close to completing a remake of Battle Chess. Frymuchan (talk) 17:35, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Still generate income? 

message: These have been moved here from a subpage as part of a cleanup process. See Wikipedia:Discontinuation of comments subpages.
Added WikiProject Companies and WikiProject California banner, rated start class and mid importance. The problem is that the lead section needs expanding. The section Becoming a publisher are unreferenced and needs to add citations, in including the Descent was released in 1995. "The company then reported several years of losses, as titles such as Descent 3 and FreeSpace 2 had lackluster sales" is unreferenced at the section Financial troubles. Some of the red links need to be removed to improve the article. JJ98 (Talk) 02:04, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Assessment comments

message: " ...the company altered its licensing agreement with Bethesda Software..." This line has no context, since this is the first time in the article that even mentions Bethesda or a licensing agreement. And without even a citation it's completely meaningless. 96.28.39.103 (talk) 23:30, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
