Talk:Definitive Versions

Definitive Editions
Earlier about half a year ago, someone dropped an idea of a definitive versions page on this Wikia. It sounded very interesting, but for whatever reason it fell through. Whelp! Here it is. It's a start... I encourage any contributions to this page as there are many MANY games that are not as easy to pick from all the multiple remakes, editions, ports, etc... Unfortunately, I may not be able to contribute much to this page as I have other things to work on (college and shit). If anyone wants to change the page's photo or edit the introduction description then be my guest. I look forward to see how this all turns out. Haipayazoo (talk) 04:59, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

Rom hacks?
I wouldn't consider a Rom Hack a valid entry in this page. The point of this page is to determine which "official" edition out of the bunch is the best choice to go for in order to get the best experience out of a game. However, it's not like it changes anything in-game (like adding new levels or remixing any music) so that it doesn't deviate from the original. Even so, I'm reluctant on keeping this entry considering there are many romhacks that improve games one way or another. So much so that it really should have a separate page. I dunno...What do you guys think?


 * I'm not 100% sure, either, but I think as long as it's a ROM hack that does not signifigantly change a game from the origional it might be OK. Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckes were meant to be the same game and there was a combined buggy version that did actually come out, so this is an actually released game and not an origonal hack. All the Hack does is fix bugs so it runs smoother. As long as ROM hacks and patched versions don't outnumber the actual company-released games they should be OK. Also, if the company that made the game creates a version just as good as the hack it should replace the hack just to encourage people to keep supporting the companies. -- Kitsuneae (talk) 20:10, April 25, 2013 (UTC)
