Now that I've listened to the Stack Overflow Podcast (#47), I understand the point of view you're trying to get across quite a bit more. I agree that the correct way to be handling this, rather specifically from an Arqade point of view (since that's where I spend most of my time and that's the site mentioned so much during the podcast) is to do the following;

• Make a way for us to denote that a tag is 'the topic of conversation', in our instance, this would be the name of the game
• Make these tags very prominent next to the game title

While I agree that some of our titles make it difficult to understand what game is being spoken about without referring to the tags, I do not believe the correct way of dealing with this issue is to edit the game name into each title to specify which game is being discussed as this leads to things like question titles wrapping onto multiple lines, horrible titles like "Game Name: Question?" or "Question - Game Name" which, in my opinion, is a further step back than our current titles.

Ultimately, this issue only exists within Stack Exchange, as any question on the site will appear with the tags prefixed before the title in the page title, on search engines, etc - therefore it should be dealt with within the Stack Exchange engine, rather than changing the way titles are currently formed.
