To begin, I have not played this game at all. So, this review is from an unbiased viewpoint. Some of the issues:

~~the first reference's link is broken.~~
I've added a weasel word template to an info. paragraph sentence
- Done. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The sentence after that has some confusion, who was taking care of the orphans? There are two people mentioned in the sentence.

In the first sentence of the 2nd paragraph, there are what I believe are titles, after a two individual gaming sites. You should capitalize the titles and add quotations to make evident the titles.

Next there is a mention to Kendra Midori who I believe is a character of James Cameron's Avatar but the wiki. link you provide is to a 1970's video game.

Well, that's all I can find for now. Sincerely Subzerosmokerain (talk) 00:29, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, I don't have any prior knowledge with:

what DomZ or Alpha Section is in the Appearances section. Who are the bad guys per se?
You might have to fluff out the Appearances section because it is looking a bit small compared to the rest of the article.
Also you should reference that section a bit with the Cite Video Game Template.
- Unfortunately, I don't own the game, so I can't fill that in. I'll have to ask the person who added the section. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The Jade (disambiguation) does not have a redirect to the article.
- Done. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fix those and I think you've pretty much fixed it. Sincerely Subzerosmokerain (talk) 21:48, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Overall it looks decent, however:
- Considering it's likely the Ubisoft template will be deleted, I would say that on NFCC grounds File:Beyond Good & Evil Artwork Jade Version.png should probably be removed.
  - That's probably true. I also wanted to find a character portrait of her that resembles the lead image. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- As Subzero mentions, another paragraph could probably be added to the appearances section, or at the very least extra explanation as to who the DomZ, IRIS, alpha sections are.
  - I'll make sure that gets done. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure if you've done this, but a location for good character info would be digging through the game reviews (I see one is listed.) Since I'm working on Beyond Good & Evil, I'll see if other mentions crop up that should be included.
  - I often look through reviews, but have not done it in this instance. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The lead goes into a bit too much detail on the ethnicity bit, methinks.
  - Hrm, maybe. I think it needs some mention though, since it was a matter that received response from a developer. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The description in the infobox sounds more like alt text, and is a bit unnecessary in my opinion.
  - I thought that alt text was suggested? - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    - Alt text is suggested but what those images have are captions, captions don't need to be as descriptive as alt text. To create alt text for an image [[File:Beyond Good & Evil Artwork Jade Version.png|thumb|right|Early concept version of Jade. She lacks the green clothing of the above image as well as the headband, wearing a t-shirt with an image on the front instead.|alt=DescriptiveTextHere]].
