I'm too dumb to know all the steps to edit a page, but the original was literally shit, it had a shitton of games that are not even close to the genre, like God of War, which is stupid since the main reason this subgenre even exists is to separate DMC and GoW, because they are drastically different games even though they are technically Beat em Ups. I'm not even gone to question what the fuck the batman games are doing here.

to:

I drastically edited the page since the original was basically shit with a lot of exemples that don\'t really fit the trope, like God of War(since one of the reasons to this genre even exist is to differentiate GoW-like action and DMC-like Action). And I have no fucking idea what the person was thinking when he added Batman and Kirby to this list, I mean, really?

I know I probably fucked up, but this is my first edit and I'm a huge fan of this genre and the TV Tropes was infuriating to me. I'm also using the

I made this edit without discussion because I\'m too stupid and also because I knew an edit so drastically would draw the attention to an discussion, otherwise no one would really be interested in the matter.

I\'m a \"huge casual fan\" of this particular genre and it is infuriating to see it being misused to this degree. For those who don\'t know this genre is know by a HUGE variety of names including Stylish Action, Spectacle Fighter, Cuhrayzee, Character Action, Deep Action, Extreme Action.

Some Remarks about some of those names:

*Spectacle Fighter is one of the more recent since it was coined by Yahtzee in his Mad World Review (circa 2009).
*Stylish action is the more popular with almost 10 times the results for Spectacle Fighter and is also one of the oldest, I can get results in google using this term years before Yahtzee made his review and most of the results are used to refer to games like DMC, Ninja Gaiden and Bayonetta.
*Cuhrayzee is the more well defined (I will get to it in a bit) and using google trends it seems that it almost as popular as Spectacle Fighter.
*Character Action is technically the one with more google results, but this is more because some of the results put every game that have a character and action as Character Action, like Pandemonium! and even Sonic.

I recommend that you guys read the Cuhrayzee Games General(CGG) Wiki since it is the only place that I know where this genre is well explained and defined:

http://cuhrayzee.wikia.com/wiki/CUHRAYZEE_GAMES_GENERAL_Wiki
http://cuhrayzee.wikia.com/wiki/Game_Criteria

I also recommend changing the page to Stylish Action. Spectacle Fighter is the less common name, but I don\'t know how to edit it.

Stylish Action is the most well know, but personally Cuhrayzee is the better name of the bunch, none of the names are really good, Stylish Action can be easily distorted or misinterpreted to refer to action games with some sense of style(which isn\'t the case since the Style of Stylish Action comes from the depth in the combat, with the player being in control, CGG kinda of explain this in detail and there is some videos about the subject of depth in games which gives you an general Idea), Cuhrayzee is a name so batshit insane that the only way to know what It means is by reading about it, theres way way less room for misinterpretation with this name

Also english is not my native language, so if I wrote something wrong, feel free to correct me

I also recommend changing the page to Cuhrayzee games or Stylish Action. Spectacle Fighter is the less common name, but I don\'t know how to do this.

While Stylish Action is the most well know, personally Cuhrayzee is the better name, none of the names are really good, Cuhrayzee is a name so batshit insane that it means less people will have a wrong idea about the genre simply by the name.
