... that when Sam Barlow (pictured) put the script for Her Story in a spreadsheet, it crashed his laptop?

ALT1:... Sam Barlow (pictured) became an independent game developer to work on Her Story?
ALT2:... Her Story (pictured) is an interactive movie game, in which players search through clips from police interviews?
Reviewed: Sunset Overdrive
Comment: Image of Sam Barlow fits with hook and ALT1. Image of game screenshot fits with ALT2.

Crashing a laptop? That says little about the subject and more about how rubbish spreadsheet software is. The ALT hooks are just dull. Why not try and link Viva Seifert in the hook, who was previously an international level gymnast? Or The Game Awards 2015? Or VHS tapes and File:Her Story screenshot 04.jpg. Fantastic work on the article, in particular the media licensing, but I'm sure you can do better with the hooks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hahnchen (talk • contribs) 12:19, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

@Hahnchen: How are these?

ALT3: ... that developer Sam Barlow input footage into two VHS players (pictured) before implementing it into Her Story?

ALT4: ... that the video game Her Story (pictured) features entirely live action footage?

ALT5: ... that Her Story (pictured) won Best Narrative and Best Performance at The Game Awards 2015?

Let me know. – Rhain ☔ 12:39, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Article is long enough, promoted to GA, free from any copyright violation, and neutral. The hooks are of suitable length and supported by sources. The Game Awards do not really seems interesting. QPQ is done and image are all free. ALT3 is okay, but I personally prefer ALT2 and ALT4. (Perhaps you can combine them together?) Anyway, it is good to go!
