Earth (location) page needs clean-up

The page for Earth should only be linked to games that treat Earth as an actual location, like Mass Effect or Gyruss. Games that just happen to take place on Earth (Call of Duty: World at War, for example) shouldn't be attached to this page.

In Mass Effect you can't even actually visit Earth though, it's just mentioned. Do things like that merit inclusion on the page?

I haven't looked at or attached Earth to anything in a long time. This page is dead to me.

Some games seem to be just including games based on the series. Games like Armored Core 2 and Doom occurred on Mars, not earth.

I think a complete overhaul is needed.

I noticed this a while ago. I was going to try and clean it up, but decided I didn't really know enough to do it. I was going to post on the forums to get some help in doing it, but it completely slipped my mind. It definitely need cleaning up. GO POWER RANGERS!!!!!!!!!

Hey, I'm busy writing articles for the likes of Rhyme Rider Kerorican, Splatterhouse: Wanpaku Graffiti, and right now I'm working on Guilty Gear Petit.

So, should we only count those games where you are made aware of your presence on planet Earth? I'm thinking it should be used as a sci-fi concept.

OK. I just removed a number of games, but it's definitely not finished yet. I did manage to eliminate some of the games that take place exclusively on Earth and games where it's not clear what planet they're set on.

Yeah, as I've said on several occasions, I think these game counts should be recalculated site-wide. Once they go out of sync, there's not much else you can do about that.

I cleaned up the page a bit by taking out the really obvious ones which just take place in Earth and is not used like a proper location like Moto GP 08 and NBA 07 which really don't belong there.

Earth is in the game, you just can't land on it.
