GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar):   b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):  
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):   d (copyvio and plagiarism):  
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  

Lead

Adam Tierney mentioned in infobox, but nowhere else.
Tom Hulett mentioned in a quote and infobox, but nowhere else.
Damon Du Bois not mentioned outside infobox, and their work is unsourced.

Reception

Is there anymore sales data that exists in reliable sources?
The Reception feels a little strange, but not bad, haha. I'm not used to seeing a section that omits the sources like that from the prose, but it is an interesting approach.

Sources

Dead Joystiq source, consider running the article through an archiving bot

Images

I'm not sure it's valid to say that the screenshot image will only be used in this article, as it theoretically may be able to be used somewhere else. Further, the fair use rationale is a bit weak in that it lacks anything for why it's not replaceable and what respect was made for commercial opportunities. Same deal for the lead image.

That's about it. Once these issues are addressed, I'll be ready to pass.

@Rapunzel-bellflower:

Comment in regards to the box art non-free rationale I think that this template here Template:Non-free use rationale video game cover may be quite useful for the nominator. Regards  Spy-cicle💥  Talk? 23:03, 24 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Abryn: Thank you for the review! As for the sales figures, to the best of my knowledge, there are not any other sales figures, unfortunately. I did add an archived version of the Joystiq source. A source was added for Hulett and Tierney, although I was unable to verify Du Bois. He's listed as an art director in the credits, and I was unsure if that was the same as an artist. I did update both the cover and screenshot FUR; thank you @Spy-cicle: for that template. I definitely appreciate it! Please let me know, Abryn, if there's anything else you see amiss in the article!

You're welcome. I wish you the best in passing the rest of the GA criteria for this article.  Spy-cicle💥  Talk? 23:49, 30 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
