 * Symbol voting keep.svg Article was promoted to GA on 8 April, appears neutral, and is well referenced. Spotcheck of the most-used online sources showed no copyvio concerns. The hook fact is interesting and cited in the article to an offline source. Any of the variations ALT1-4 are fine. 97198 (talk) 11:14, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * As one that helped to get to GA, I think ALT 3 or 4 are the best choices. The Easter egg wasn't "featured" in the game to speak, and at that time, it's had to call it having been "concealed" as we think of Easter eggs now. "Contained" or "included" are better words here for that. --M ASEM (t) 14:05, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I'd prefer ALT3. —Torchiest talkedits 15:36, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg Several paragraphs lack any cites at all, per Rule D2. Yoninah (talk) 01:13, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Every paragraph in the body has at least one citation, except for the first sentence in the reception section, which is simply summarizing the reviews that follow. Paragraphs in the lead do not require citations. —Torchiest talkedits 01:19, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol voting keep.svg Oops, I was looking at the Atari 2600 article. Sorry about that. Restoring tick per 97198's review. Yoninah (talk) 01:22, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Ah, thank goodness. I was really confused for a minute. Cheers. —Torchiest talkedits 01:24, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
