Reviewer: Xtzou ( Talk ) 18:40, 29 May 2010 (UTC) Hi, I am reviewing this article and have made some comments below. I hope it is ok that I did some copy editing. Please feel free to revert errors I may have introduced.

*"Amaya Lopex gave the original arcade version of the game four out of five." - four out of five what? Stars? Points? I may add some more comments later. Xtzou ( Talk ) 18:40, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Lead
 * "supported a light gun" - perhaps link here to explain what it is.
 * I tried to reword some of the lead; please revert any errors I may have introduced.
 * Gamesplay
 * "The story has sections that take place aboard the space craft and on the planet's surface." - what is the planet?
 * "Enemies are either aliens or mechanical guns that descend from above the screen,[8] several of which can only be defeated by first shooting away their limbs" - how can a player should away the limbs of mechanical guns?
 * "Screens scroll horizontally and into the screen in pseudo-3D." - Can this be worded better?
 * Development and history
 * "The visuals are reflected into view via a mirror in the cabinet." - what does this mean?
 * "with the marquee baring the game's name overhanging players if they are leaning in. " - hanging over the players?
 * "on the limited edition CD "ZUNTATA HISTORY L'ab-normal 1st" - why is this in all caps?
 * Home conversions
 * "In 1992, Ocean Software ported the game to home gaming systems" - I'm confused, as no specific mention has been made of the arcade release, that I noticed.
 * "Taito's Sega Master System port uses the Sega Light Phaser accessory. The Amiga and Atari ST versions is one of the few games to use the Trojan Light Gun.[2][3] On October 14, 2005, the game was included in the Taito compilation Taito Legends for the PS2, PC and Xbox." - these sentences seem to be unrelated facts.
 * Reception
 * Reception
 * "Zero magazine gave particular praise to the sections where humans mutate into aliens" - it hasn't been explained that humans mutate into aliens in Gamesplay.


 * I made edits to address some of your concerns. I'll try to address to the rest later. (Guyinblack25 talk 03:05, 31 May 2010 (UTC))
 * That should take care of most everything. In regard to the reflected visuals in the cabinet, the second paragraph of Space Invaders has a picture that illustrates what that is. Please let me know how I can word that to better convey the idea. (Guyinblack25 talk 15:37, 1 June 2010 (UTC))
 * You have done a very good job. Xtzou ( Talk ) 15:50, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
