As a user, I have always wondered what was the rational for the current |
| 2 |
game categories and thought it should splitted in a more standard way. |
| 3 |
What immediately comes to mind as a "decent" way to split games is the |
| 4 |
wikipedia page for video game genres: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_genres |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
That would make 7 categories and the game description could include the |
| 9 |
subcategory if necessary. |
| 10 |
If a subcategory grows too large, it could justify making it its own |
| 11 |
category. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Then, the maintainers only needs to follow the description of each genre |
| 14 |
to place the game in the appropriate category. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
But this is just a suggestion, the games-adventure category makes sense |
| 17 |
by itself IMHO. |
