Lost Luggage (video game)
This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this article for peer review because I intend to nominate this article for FAC after my current one is promoted (hopefully). So I'd like people to pick at it before I do so.

Alright, a solid little article about a silly little game. Some random comments as they come to me.
 * "enabling this mode will cause black suitcases to appear.[3][2]" - change it to [2][3]
 * Done
 * Luggage carousel and Dallas, Texas are redirecting
 * Done
 * The Games by Apollo article says that they were based in Richardson, a Dallas suburb town, not Dallas.
 * You're right. Handled
 * "After, Salvo presented artist Ernie Runyon" - "later" or "afterwards"
 * Done, used "afterwards"
 * "Runyon was a new hire at Apollo, having joined the company in March 1982" - you haven't said outside the lead that these development things took place in September 1982 (and was it? You said it took a month to make and came out in September 1982, but was there a gap between finishing the game and when it was on shelves? I know a lot of Atari games had a large gap for production.)
 * There were no sources indicating when the development period, so I just deleted this sentence. I also re-arranged the lead; didn't mean for that sentence to indicate development was also in September.
 * "The crew of Apollo brainstormed titles[...] with Runyon remembering one of the proposed titles was "Airport Mayhem"" - tense problem, he wasn't remembering it at the time, he remembered it later.
 * Yep. Got it.
 * "He stated he would have liked to have included a luggage train" - either "He has stated" or say when or where he stated it
 * Got it.
 * "in the 4K cartridge" -link or define what 4K is in this context
 * Kilobyte. Done.
 * "Salvo programmed the game" - you said Runyon programmed the game not two sentences ago
 * Salvo helped him program it. Changed.
 * "joystick movements which took one week to fix" - comma before which
 * Done
 * " were done by Larry Minor" - done is an odd, casual word to use there- try "created"
 * Switched.
 * "Upon release, there were negative reviews" - oddly passive, try "The game received negative reviews upon release" or something like it
 * Done.
 * Link Kaboom! (video game) the first time it's used in reception, not the second
 * Done. This was a leftover from when I switched the reviews to have contemporary ones first.
 * Link Eggomania
 * Linked.
 * Why do you redlink TV Gamer in the references but not Electronic Gaming or Digital Press or Atari HQ?
 * Unlinked TV Gamer.
 * Capitalize Allgame in the references
 * Done.
 * Consider archiving your online references with a site like archive.org or webcitation.org so that changes/removals of content don't wreck your citations.
 * I'll see about this. I checked and Archive.org has copies of all the references, so I think I'll be fine, but I might make webcitation copies just in case

 * Cool. Just saw that you nominated two more Games by Apollo games for GAN- are you planning on building out a Good Topic on their whole catalog? -- Pres N  22:35, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm gonna try. I don't know if there'll be enough material for some of them, though.  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 22:38, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
