Considering there are four games now, two of which are more spin-offs than sequels or prequels, does this count as a franchise? Or does there need to be at least two forms of media for that to be the case?

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanFuturama Shout Out
-Had this pointed out to me by a friend, but there's an Anomaly in the game (noted in the Ace trope in this list) about "Some Guy" who's a business whiz. The accompanying image shows a man wearing a dark blue suit, blue shirt, and yellow tie, just like the character "That Guy" (aka "Steve Castle") in Futurama, and the flavor text ends with a near quote from the character, "Awesome to the max". I think this should be added under the Shout Out trope here.
Some of the entries for Endless Space under "Captain Ersatz" bug me. There's something wrong, but I'm not quite sure how to fix them. (So, rather than try to fix them myself and possibly make the situation first, I'm putting it in the discussion page.)
The first one that's wrong is:
"The Sophons and Pilgrims resemble versions of the Advent from Sins of a Solar Empire. Exiled as Cyborgs for the Pilgrims and has that Everything Is An Ipod In The Future likeness for the Sophons, while both struggle for their unity as two races."
I'm not sure exactly what the OP means by "Exiled as Cyborgs", because the Pilgrims AREN'T cyborgs. They just have a thing for facial tattoos. And "... struggle for their unity as two races" feels wrong in the sense that it makes it sound like they're trying to unite the two races.
The second one is:
"What Could Possibly Go Wrong? if you have a race called Endless to so happened to spread their ancient technology, more so inspiring others, across the universe via Dark Ancient Cities and Wormholes, and still look like humanoids for so many years."
Um... what? That is wrong on so many levels, I don't even know how to fix it. If someone has an insight into what the OP actually *meant* to say, let me know.
