- I think I've covered everything. I replaced the dead, upper-cased reference with two from GameSpot for release date information (one for each platform), and I think I understood your meaning with regards to the OFLC (if you meant expanding out the acronym into the article text). You didn't mention which ref (other than 4) didn't have a publisher, but I think you might have meant reference 5, which I added a publisher to. If not, or there's anything else, let me know.

- Yup, that's exactly what I meant for the acronym, sorry if I didn't make sense. Also, that's my bad, I had a "typo" accident and forgot to mention it, again sorry about that. Anyways, thank you to SynergyBlades for getting the stuff I left at the talk page, because I have gone off and placed the article as GA. Congrats. ;) -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 21:31, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
