Senile Team
Non notable software company having a grand total of 4 employees. Their fame comes from developing Beats of Rage, a freeware game with some devoted fans. Fails WP:CORP quite obviously. Pascal.Tesson 03:31, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete because of WP:CORP. -- Mikeblas 04:09, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, fails WP:CORP WP:ORG. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 05:38, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep if expanded, I would tend to agree with the above, but Senile Team are not actually a company, so WP:CORP doesn't really apply. I do believe, however, that they are an important and certainly notable influence on homebrew gaming, as the success of their first projects, Beats of Rage, clearly demonstrates. The article does need to be expanded on to be of any use, though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.211.143.61 (talk • contribs)
 * Delete WP:VER no secondary sources. Ste4k 10:57, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Lacks notability. Four employees and one freeware game don't equal notability unless many people have heard of them (i.e. Napster in the good ol' days).  --NMChico24 00:55, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Their first game has become synonymous with customizable game engines, just like band-aid is with elastic bandages, or to put into better terms - like MAME is with arcade game emulators. Their second title is one of the most anticipated games in the retro gaming community. MetaFox 23:37, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Beats of Rage is quite popular. The article needs work, though. Ace of Sevens 00:21, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep Suggestion: Check the meaning of the word "encyclopedia". AshKaiser
 * Keep The importance of the company does not so much lie in the freeware title "Beats of Rage", but rather in its open source game engine which is the only engine around to make oldschool sidescrolling beatemups with. It is still being developed further by an ever growing community of programmers and modders. The next release of senile team "Age of the Beast" will do the same for sidescrollers of the "Golden Axe" type.
