Well-Written edit

  • "the mascot for Burger King, in a" take off the comma.
  • "Players takes control of" - "Players take control of"
  • Gameplay states that there are two modes, while in the infobox there is only one.
  • Perhaps link to non-player characters
  • "A person with a burger" - this part is confusing to the reader. Please use "NPC" for consistency
  • Quotes need to be exactly as it is. "around them. 'They" should be "around them.'They"

References edit

  • FN 2 - the date should be October 2 2006
  • What's the difference between FN 1 and FN 9. Are they citing the same thing?

Broad in coverage edit

  • Sorry if this is not specific enough. But can you add information from this book?

Listed fixes done, and yes, the manual reference was duplicated. The Changing the Game: How Video Games Are Transforming the Future of Business is not something I have full access to, but it largely duplicates the article in Game Developer. It pulls the same material in a very similar fashion with little added commentary. Yes, I could find a way to add it to the reflist - but I do not see much value in that source. Then again - I cannot see page 69 or 70. However, if you disagree with me, I will definitely try to work it in. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 22:45, 15 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

@ChrisGualtieri: The infobox still states that there is only one game mode.  ΤheQ Editor  Talk? 17:06, 16 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
Mode does not refer to sand-box, challenge or other modes - it is a reference to single player or multiplayer. Template:Infobox video game states: "Modes - Playing modes offered by the game. Currently, the only accepted values are single-player, multiplayer, or both." Sorry for not addressing it in my first response @TheQ Editor:. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 05:26, 18 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
@ChrisGualtieri: Oops, didn't check the documentation. Passing for GA.
