:On the side note, I'll be away for two days, so start renaming as fast as you can in a few hours (an attempt at humor). --[[User:Ngng|Ngng]] ([[User talk:Ngng|talk]]) 21:31, 29 November 2016 (UTC) | :On the side note, I'll be away for two days, so start renaming as fast as you can in a few hours (an attempt at humor). --[[User:Ngng|Ngng]] ([[User talk:Ngng|talk]]) 21:31, 29 November 2016 (UTC) | ||
What the boxart says won't make me change a title, boxart titles are often up to interpretation(though LEGO is only a small logo on the bottom left, exactly how and where (co-)publishers usually print their logo). I started looking into it because the title on the side of the box (where the full title is usually written) and the information on the back cover/disc do not mention LEGO as part of the title either. I then found that both the developer and LEGO itself also mention the game without LEGO in the title(unlike some other games), which prompted me to change it. | ::What the boxart says won't make me change a title, boxart titles are often up to interpretation(though LEGO is only a small logo on the bottom left, exactly how and where (co-)publishers usually print their logo).

::The only title(s) that should matter is the one that shows up in the game itself. Everything else is irrelevant bullshit. The only title(s) I can guarantee you the developers wrote themselves (and therefore is what the developers intended and not some mistake from a retarded part-timer at the publisher) is the title on the main screen of the game. For example, some people think Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix is called Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+ because that's the name on the box art, but that's incorrect. Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+ is not the name of any game, it's the name of a product, that product being a 2-for-1 package of Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix and Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories. | |||
::As far as Soccer Mania is concerned, LEGO is ''definitely'' not part of the game's title. That's a logo in the box art. Here's actual in-game footage of the intro of the game, where you can clearly see the word LEGO and the words "Football Mania" as far away as humanly possible from each other: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CJumdKhVNw | |||
::'''''"I believe there is no such thing as a correct title. The closest you can get is the most widely used one"''''' There ''is'' such a thing as a correct title, and it's not necessarily the one that's most widely used. In the case of the official title, it's not about what you believe, it's about what is. [[User:Karasuhebi|Karasuhebi]] ([[User talk:Karasuhebi|talk]]) 16:20, 3 December 2016 (UTC) | |||
