Does not seem to meet notability guidelines, as notability is not inherited from the main topic. Also, article reads like an advertisement. BlueSquadron Raven  20:20, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep but cleanup. Game for a major console from a major publisher with multiple major sources.  TJ   Spyke   21:15, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Sources such as? I can't see that every title by a major publisher for a major console is notable in and of itself. I'm just trying to understand the rationale. -- BlueSquadron Raven  21:20, 16 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep – Looking at the links in the article to IGN and GameSpot, there is plenty of independent coverage there and from reliable secondary sources. Notability is easily established. The reason why the article read like an advertisement is that because the second paragraph was a copyvio of the IGN synopsis at I have removed that paragraph as shown here.

 * Merge with Atomic Betty is the way to go 83.251.131.118 (talk) 21:57, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Did you look for sources? Two of the external links there lead to misc. articles that can be used to establish notability and they've been they've been there since 2007. Game Rankings lists some usable reviews and GameZone has a decent sized review, there's previews on IGN, GameSpot and 1up. Someoneanother 22:53, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment MuZemike removed a copyvio and I threw together a basic reception section and cited some sources. So now, with that raccoon's help, I'll give myself a prrrrrrrrromotion. Someoneanother 16:17, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep A game released for a major platform with reliable sources. I strongly suggest NOT to merge as the game has enough information to necessitate a separate article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kagetto (talk • contribs) 17:50, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
