I remember we spoke about something similar at akademy, not sure if there was 
any followup in IRC or not.

Anyways my idea was INCLUDING more games not EXCLUDING them.

If there was not a recent discussion in IRC, Eugene, you have overstepped 
here.

Also you are even contradicting yourself:

**********
EXTRA
    These would be the games in extra gear which we consider to be useful 
additions to the distro.
**********

NO game inside kdegames fits in this description because they are not in 
extragear but in kdegames.

If you don't know what extragear is, read about it.
