I'll be reviewing this article pretty soon. GamerPro64 20:20, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
So the article seems to be pretty much good. One issue is that there is a citation from Screwattack! which is considered unreliable for the Video Game Project. Should remove that. Especially since the link is dead. GamerPro64 20:18, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- OK, done. TarkusAB 12:08, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
Doing a second sweep I have one more comment:
- "The action shooter gameplay design was based on Radiant Silvergun while polarity elements were borrowed from Silhouette Mirage". Is it possible to find a secondary source on this claim? GamerPro64 00:43, 2 June 2017 (UTC)
- I added the Hardcore Gaming article to support that sentence. It's not straight from the developer's mouth, but I feel the Radiant Silvergun piece is well documented in the rest of the section to not be controversial. If it's not good enough for the Silhouette Mirage piece, I can reword the sentence so it's more of a probability than hard fact. TarkusAB 05:01, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- Maybe offer a possible sentence replacement. GamerPro64 05:14, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- OK I rewrote that part. How does it look? TarkusAB 05:36, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- Isn't it rather redundant to mention they're earlier Treasure games while adding the year they came out in the sentences? GamerPro64 05:55, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- I usually add dates after game titles the first time they're mentioned. I think it looks more professional and gives some time scale context. I see people do it all the time for films. If you don't think it's necessary I can remove. TarkusAB 06:18, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- I think its fine thinking about it now. I think its safe to promote this article to GA status now. Anyone who disagrees with this decision can always take this article to WP:GAR. GamerPro64 20:43, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
