message: The Gothic 3 article says G3 uses the "Genome engine". Does this engine comes from Gamebyro or is it completly different? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.91.87.49 (talk • contribs) 
:I have no firsthand knowledge, but I'd suspect it is something completely different.  AFAIK, Gamebryo doesn't have any spin-off engines. — Frecklefoot | Talk 16:59, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm not really sure what the supported platforms part of the article means, but several Gamebryo titles run on a Macintosh. Should the Mac be added to the list of platforms? 208.54.14.50 19:36, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mac support 

message: That a game runs in an emulator (or emulator like software) under an operating system, doesn't make it supported by that operating system. "Transgaming Cedega" is such an emulator like piece of software and unless the developers have explicitly claimed to support this way of running the software, it unsupported. Period.
I am going to remove the entry, and if anyone thinks is wrong, they should link to something that really proves that it's true. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by FrederikHertzum (talk • contribs) 22:32, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I added the cite tag to the spike in popularity claim because although it may very well be true, it could easily be not true. Elder Scrolls is popular, that's a given but it doesn't prove that it has made GameBryoa any more popular. A reference from a gaming site or even GameBryo themselves mentioning the spike in popularity is needed. Nothing in the article shows a spike in popularity. The games list only lists 2 games in 2007 and it's very likely these were in development using GameBryo before Elder Scrolls was released. Nil Einne 10:51, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Spike in popularity 

message: The page mentions Gamebryo being used for Civilization 3; that game seems to be purely 2D, so I don't see how it could benefit from a 3D engine. 80.120.149.138 12:05, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Well, we don't typically divuldge prices and such (for several reasons), but keep in mind this is a professional grade game engine.  It is intended for professional developers, probably with some sort of track record.  If you aren't a professional video game developer, they probably won't even sell it to you (they interview each potential customer).  But if, for the sake of argument, you are a professional developer, it'd cost several thousand $'s per SKU. — Frecklefσσt | Talk 17:03, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

message: The list of games using Gamebryo is just supposed to be a sample of games that use the engine, not an all-inclusive list.  That type of information is better left to Gamebryo's own website, not Wikipedia.  I'll be going through trimming games, probably leaving just the most recent ones.  If you object, state here and why. — Frecklefσσt | Talk 16:18, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Trimmed the list down to just recent and popular games.  Many that were in the list were old or just obscure. — Frεcklεfσσt | Talk 13:40, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

replies: text:  The "Creation Engine" is just a renamed and modified version of Gamebryo, derived from Oblivion/Fallout 3/etc., just as the version of Gamebryo used in Fallout 3 was derived from Oblivion, just as the version used in Oblivion derived from Morrowind. — 24.243.114.86 (talk) 15:47, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text:  If it has been modified and renamed then it isn't Gamebryo anymore, otherwise you'd have to say that it's not Gamebryo, but in fact NetImmerse since the same applies. 86.184.222.1 (talk) 17:38, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

text:  Come to think of it, for an example list having anything that can be contested just seems silly, at the very least, citation needed.86.186.191.58 (talk) 07:40, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text:  The arguments for having Skyrim on this list aren't really valid. Even if the Creation Engine is built off of Gamebryo, Bethesda has not labeled the game as powered by Gamebryo. They list it as powered by Creation. By your logic, we'd have to edit all Valve game articles to say that they run on the Quake engine. Ctrlaltdecimate (talk) 04:18, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: List of Gamebryo games

message: What I state above goes for the NetImmerse engine too (which is now depricated, replaced by Gamebryo).  But I saw some games that are in the list for both engines: that's not possible.  Either you use one engine, or the other, not both.  For those in the know, please clean up.  Thanks. — Frecklefσσt | Talk 16:21, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I just removed the NetImmerse product list since it's a deprecated product. — Frεcklεfσσt | Talk 13:40, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: You can't have it both ways

message: Should it be mentioned near the beginning of the article that "Gamebryo" is a portmanteau of the words "Game" and "embryo"? It seems kind of elementary, but there's no harm in mentioning it. Ctrlaltdecimate (talk) 04:48, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
