GA Review
I'll be reviewing the article over the next few days. Below you will find the standard GAN criteria, along with a list of issues I have found. As criteria pass, a or  will be replaced with a. Below the criteria you'll see a list of issues I've found. Feel free to work on them at any time. I will notify you when I'm done checking over the article. At that time I'll allow the standard one week for fixes to be made.

Issues found
Unfortunately I have to Quick-Fail this article due to several major issues:
 * The lead is lacking information on gameplay and reception of the game. Per WP:LEAD, it should be a summary of the article
 * Overall the prose needs copy edits and general cleanup. I recommend a peer review to help bring the prose up to snuff.
 * It needs reorganization under WikiProject Video games/Article guidelines to comply with standards. Take a look at Backbreaker (video game) for how to organize a sports game article.
 * There are Citation needed tags on the article.
 * The Development and Promotion section has no info on the development of the game, only the promotion
 * Soundtracks should not be listed unless they have been released commercially separate from the game, and then only with significant coverage themselves.
 * The Reception section needs to be expand to at least twice its current size, organized by the positive/negative paragraphs, then type of comments (AI, graphics, etc).

Result: Quick-Failed
