Unfortunately, I'm going to have to instantly fail this article. There's a multitude of issues with it that prevent it from becoming a GA, including one major one in particular (which I will explain below).
- Well written? No. The page does not follow the video game WikiProject's manual of style. Sections are written like advertisements and there's lots of broken-up sentences that should be merged into paragraphs. Reception is weak despite having several reviews for multiple versions of this one game.
- Verifiable? No. Lots of sections have unreliable sources like MobyGames, or even no sources at all.
- Broad in coverage? No. Sections often go into detail about unrelated games or events that don't actually mention the game itself.
- Neutral? No. Many sentences feel very opinionated and biased. For example, "High-contrast light, hard-edge shadows and a photo-realistic film filter made early demo versions of SWAT: Global Strike Team stand out."
- Stable? Not considered due to the other issues present.
- Illustrated? Not considered due to the other issues present.
Because of these, the article fails the GA criteria, and as such, I've decided to fail it. The major issue I mentioned earlier is that your user page claims you worked at Sierra, which published this game. I feel this falls under WP:COI, which is heavily discouraged and has the potential of having a block placed on your account. It's easy for me to tell this was done by somebody that worked at the company due to the soft words used to describe its reception and why certain sections read like advertisements.
