Talk:Last Hope (video game)

How to handle this?

I tried to put the developer's name - NG:DEV.TEAM - in the infobox, but it didn't work right. I checked if I could create an article about it, but the supposed address [1] took me [2] to a blank page in the Ndonga version of Wikipedia!

I know the problem here is the colon. I checked the Naming conventions and technical restrictions guides; the issue is known, but they didn't make clear how to handle this.

Any ideas? - Stormwatch 19:50, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Assorted issues

1.) There should be links to external reviews. NG Team only needs one official site link - three is excessive and biases sources towards NG's viewpoint, whereas we want to include a variety of views on the game.

2.) On related notes, a "critical reception" section would be good; also, the second sentence of the opening paragraph should be written something like "fans feel the game is..." or "the developers wished to pay homage to..." Without any third party reviews or developer chat this becomes POV. Just a reminder that Wikipedia is not a site for reviewing games.

3.) The use of preorder was in the wrong tense; I've fixed this to reflect that you can no longer preorder the Dreamcast version. --Edwin Herdman 22:04, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Update: I've edited the pricing section to reflect the two packaging variations. Apologies if the writing isn't up to snuff; edit as you wish. --Edwin Herdman 03:18, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Further update: I see the updated pricing, thanks Stormwatch. I looked at the grammar again and modified it slightly. --Edwin Herdman 20:39, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Criticism section

Well, it was bound to happen that somebody would add links to negative reviews. I think it's fair, but there needed to be some coverage of those who say that the bullets are not an issue for them. I know this looks like weasel words, but many people saying exactly that can be found in the same SHMUPS Forum thread referenced in the article. Perhaps the article needs more work to get the sources put together like a regular wiki article. Anyhow, I also changed the wording in the second paragraph slightly for the better. --Edwin Herdman 01:51, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
