War is a Racket, which (I think) has a similar view on capitalism and the military-industrial complex and war. --80.47.106.229 18:30, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:VG assessment

[edit]

This article's coming along very nicely, though I think this is still Start-Class. Most articles at this level need major cleanup because they're usually too game-guide-esque, but that's not the case here. Hence, by addressing many of the more major points here you could get up to B: the two main things holding this article back are lack of citations and lack of important information.

  • The two screenshots should send alarm bells flashing, as they have watermarks in. This is a big no-no. Fair use rationales could do with expansion - WP:FURG.
  • You don't need to make Iron Storm bold each time it's mentioned. There's no need to make a game's title bold after its first mention.
  • There's no need to have sub-headings in the Factions section. The amount of text there is means that it's not really useful.
  • Try to merge any one- and two-sentence paragraphs: short paragraphs make the prose seem more choppy and less pleasant to read.
  • This article needs more citations - WP:CITE.
  • Also, you might want to convert citations to use the relevant citation template - WP:CITET.
  • You could quite happily stick the World War Zero and Sequels section in one section under the heading "Releases and sequels".
  • Reception section needs expansion: have a look at the Reception sections listed at WP:VG#Example articles to get an idea of what to include.
  • Is there any information which could be used for a development section? If not, have a look at those example articles to get an idea of what to include.
  • Lead needs expansion per WP:LS: summarise everything in the article in two or three paragraphs.

If you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask. Hope this helps, Una LagunaTalk 07:02, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Flag

[edit]

I replicated the flag of Russo-Mongolia which may be of use to the article.

Saturn Game

[edit]

There is a Sega Saturn game by working designs, released much earlier, around 97, with the same title, it was a pretty good strategy-risk style game. I found it on Daisenryaku maybe there should be a link near the top of the article or disambiguation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.70.204.170 (talk) 04:13, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox

[edit]

In the Infobox, the "Platform(s)" field specifies "PC". I think that the "Platform(s)" field should specify a value or values from the " Supported platforms" section of the Vgclegend template. For example, if Iron Storm only runs on MS-DOS, then Iron Storm's Infobox should specify "DOS" in the "Platform(s)" field. ProResearcher (talk) 00:54, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sound problem?

[edit]

The reception portion of the article mentions a "sound problem that never got fixed" but no where else in the article is it mentioned. I haven't played the game so I can't fix it. I'm hoping someone else can. Thanks. --208.14.216.14 (talk) 22:12, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
