: Good idea, so I'm adding that up. But I've also wondered about the lenght of the article, with the lenghty story and gameplay, now with the character table and it doesn't even name half of them. The article will be huge if it keeps everything like this. I thought about making a page for the Shining franchise in general, then explain each division of the franchise (ie dungeon crawler, strategic RPG and action RPG). There explain there how the gameplay works, as it's very consistent through all of them. Then either note the differences there or/and in the main article for each game. It would make stuff less redundant too. Characters and story and the rest would also have their own pages and with that in mind I made a template. [[User:0r4ng3|0r4ng3]] 15:01, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

If someone wants to take some in-game shots, especially those showing various playing modes mentioned in the article, that'd be pretty awesome. Just saying. - Scarred Sun 04:14, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Good idea, so I'm adding that up. But I've also wondered about the lenght of the article, with the lenghty story and gameplay, now with the character table and it doesn't even name half of them. The article will be huge if it keeps everything like this. I thought about making a page for the Shining franchise in general, then explain each division of the franchise (ie dungeon crawler, strategic RPG and action RPG). There explain there how the gameplay works, as it's very consistent through all of them. Then either note the differences there or/and in the main article for each game. It would make stuff less redundant too. Characters and story and the rest would also have their own pages and with that in mind I made a template. 0r4ng3 15:01, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

I was wondering who'd have the patience to them all as well. I mean, I love SF to death, my favourite franchise after Sonic, but I'd probably give up towards the middle of it, especially if I had to go through the 60 hero characters of SF3. Also, have so much to do with the SA2 articles, they got kind of neglected since the Dreamcast blew the fuse. So yeah, I've redone the template and it looks far better. Also, those who have (Shining (Strategy titles)) will be shared by every game on that category so they'll only be done once.
