Comes off as trivial, with a section in its table labeled "Resident Evil-like controls" doesn't have me thinking this article meets the notability criteria. GamerPro64 17:09, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

• Comment It's a distinct style of videogame graphics, so if there are reliable sources, an article could be written incorporating a list of notable examples. I can only find low-quality sources[http://kotaku.com/video-games-with-the-most-memorable-pre-rendered-backgr-499808427][http://www.1up.com/do/blogEntry?bId=9063971][http://www.el33tonline.com/feature/2010/11/30/the_glory_days_of_prerendered/][https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=Vk8FBwAAQBAJ&lpg=PA260&ots=g1hiskvPUf&dq=games%20with%20prerendered%20backgrounds&pg=PA260#v=onepage&q=games%20with%20prerendered%20backgrounds&f=false], or I'd argue keep/rewrite. But a legitimate article might be created. --Colapeninsula (talk) 17:23, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

• Delete. Article topic lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. (?) Prerendering might be worth its own article or at least a mention on the video game glossary but this is not a helpful list only because I think it'll be impossible to find sources for most games on the list—prerendered graphics are not so notable a game element. Not worth redirecting either. Please ping me you find more (non-English and offline) sources. Cola, your fourth link there is a mirror of Wikipedia. – czar 15:45, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

:*On that note, source #2 is unusable as well. 1UP.com is usable, but not their blog entries, as they can be written by anyone signs up for an account - violating WP:USERG. Sergecross73 msg me 02:31, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

• Delete A lack of sources that make note of this means that much of the list is unsourceable. It's likely that enough sources could be found to create an article about prerendered backgrounds in video games, with a few notable examples. Not an exhaustive list however.

• Delete I agree that this is not necessary and if anything should be a category. if by some chance this is kept we should drop the Resisden Evil like controls part since this list covers genes that would never have included this type of control scheme in the first place (side scrollers, point and click adventure games etc).--70.27.228.231 (talk) 19:09, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
• Delete - multiple reasons already explained above. --The1337gamer (talk) 09:59, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
• Delete: Aside from being a really weird thing to list when it should be a category, this is completely non-notable and doesn't even describe what "Resident Evil-like controls" are. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ngeaup (talk • contribs) 15:16, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
