This template is used for showing the full-length proper game name for any game.

For example, inputting 'sa' or 'san andreas' would produce the output: Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

If you want a different game name format, you can instead use {{id}}, {{game}} or {{condensed}}. Those templates actually use this template to figure out which game is being requested.

There is 1 parameter. You can input virtually ANY variation on a game name, whether long or short form, or any other incorrect form.

It will output the full-length game name, such as: Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

To request the long game name for the input "Three" just use:

{{Long | Three}}

This will then work out that you mean GTA III and output the correct long name of: Grand Theft Auto III
