Why is this even an object page? Nearly every game has trees in it, and a page dedicated to trees and games that have trees in them is just silly. Why not make a page for games that have clouds in them? This just seems like a way for people to rack up points by adding almost every single game ever created.
Tree

A tree is a perennial woody plant. Trees are often used in games as a natural wall, providing a barrier as well as cover. Many games also use them to make their environments looks more natural and attractive.
Pointless Object Page
Yeah, it's totally stupid. The only game I can think of where trees actually matter, is Crysis, where you can use trees to kill.
"Yeah, there's too many pointless pages."But why? Isn't the approval process there for a reason?
once you get past 5000 you do not need approval for new pages. I don't know if this is the case for this page but mods let a lot of things through
"TheGTAvaccine said:Objects and concepts like this are a tough call. Usually if the submitter can clearly justify why he thinks it should be in, then it gets in. Of course, anything is subject to deletion at any time as the site and db evolve."Yeah, there's too many pointless pages."But why? Isn't the approval process there for a reason?"
"VilhelmNielsen said:That's of course true, but why is a game like HL2: EP 3 on the page? Unless of course it's added by someone with over 1000 points, but it just doesn't make any sense. We don't even know if it's gonna feature grass of any kind."TheGTAvaccine said:Objects and concepts like this are a tough call.

" hey, wanna know a game that doesn't have trees in it? Fallout 3. "It has trees...have you ever played Fallout 3? I mean the trees are dead, but they're trees...Have you ever been to the Oasis?
You know what game doesn't have trees? Red Faction Guerrilla! I think...
If they matter in Crysis as someone stated, I don't need other examples, but that makes it a useful page.
And did Killzone 2 have any trees?

I don't think Killzone 2 had any trees... or Gears of War 1 & 2... or Pong... or Asteriods... or Eve Online... or Sins of a Solar Empire
Red Faction Guerrilla doesn't have trees. It's on Mars. Granted, it's a terra-formed Mars...but it's still Mars.
Regardless...it's not a pointless page. The reason for the Wiki portion of Giant Bomb is to catalogue many different things related to gaming, including but not limited to games featuring trees.
Giant Bomb can't be an all-powerful video game website without a tree page.
I am actually more surprised that people haven't spamming thousands of tree pictures onto this page.
