Never played a Xeno game. Happy to take a look. JOEBRO64 20:08, 26 September 2017 (UTC)

Review

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   • IGN, GameSpot, GameSpy, RPGamer and Eurogamer should all be italicized, per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Titles#Major_works.
   • The English voice cast also received mixed to positive comments from reviewers. "Mixed-to-positive" is considered an odd phrase that should be avoided, per VG article guidelines. I'd also expand upon what critics praised/criticized about the English voice cast.
   • Both Episode I and Episode II were remade for the Nintendo DS as Xenosaga I & II. "Re-imagined" might be a better phrase here, since this wasn't actually a full remake.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   There are a few issues, but overall I think this is close to the GA criteria. Well done, ProtoDrake! JOEBRO64 20:06, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
