  • The hooks are interesting and of the required length, and are suitably referenced; I prefer the main hook. QPQ not required (this is the fourth nomination for this user). The article is well-written, neutral, meets the required length, and has suitable references. Article was created on 17 June 2015, within seven days of this nomination (19 June). So, with that:
We're good to go! Really great work with this, especially considering how recently the game was actually announced. -- Rhain1999 (talk to me) 01:00, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
I've struck ALT1 as it is no good: it says that the game is the first to return to a modern-day setting since Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter which isn't true. What it should say (according to the article; I have no knowledge of Tom Clancy or his ability to reconnoitre ghosts) is that the game is the first since the original Ghost Recon not to use a futuristic setting, though having a quick look through the Ghost Recon articles this doesn't seem to be true either:Advanced Warfighter 2 released in 2007 and set in 2014 is set in the (then) near future like its predecessor and the gap between the release date and the date of the setting (about 7 years) is the same as all the preceding games (two minutes reading a probably wrong article and I think I'm an expert).

Restoring tick for main hook. -- Rhain1999 (talk to me) 15:30, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
