Kristian: Not really, Batman is not an external IP WB/Time Warner own DC Comics/Batman. I am pretty sure J.K Rowling technically owns the Harry Potter IP but WB's book publishing arm published the books and WB put out the movies.. so they have pretty extensive HP rights.

InfraSuperman: I think the LEGO brand would count as an external IP, though.
Yeah, absolutely, I was just correcting the 2 external IP per game thing. Harry Potter might well also count.

Right the way I've tackled the Lego games is to have a 'Lego Group' section in External IP where the 3 new releases are listed, then have 'placeholder' DC Characters and Harry Potter sections in 'not external' with notes to refer to the Lego section in proper External for the Lego games
This allows me to explain about Harry Potter and Batman not being external to WB and gives a place for future, non-lego DC and HP games to go
A bit weird but there we go

While I was here, I decided to move the Public Domain IPs (mainly classic literature like Sherlock Holmes and Dracula) from 'Not External' to their own 'Public Domain IP' section

And while I was looking at THAT I expanded the Amuan Dracula games from just saying 'Dracula series' to pedantically listing the 5 game names out

Yep - added thanks
I *think* I got the brand ownership history at least vaguely right but I'm sure people with correct anything that's inaccurate...
Also added the last 4 Star Wars games to their sections (added the 2 Rebel Assault games as separate entries)

Metro Last Light Redux is now here. Strangely, not Metro 2033 Redux.

Fever_Discordia: Fishwrap Productions chracters
Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space (Telltale)
Sam & Max Hit the Road (LucasArts - Disney)

Sam & Max were Fishwrap Productions comic book characters before Lucus Arts, Fox Kids or Telltale got involved!
Is there any particular reason that you don't include Save the World and The Devil's Playhouse in the list?
