• Try expand the lead to two paragraphs
• Remove the trivia section
• Expand the Reception section, scores from websites, quotes from reviews sales figures, any award wins/ nominations. M3tal H3ad 11:56, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Agree with the above. I also recommend moving the plot section either before or after the gameplay section. Also, add citations of the in-game script to plot section; specifically the key moments in the storyline. If the script isn't readily available, then a gameguide can be cited. - Qjuad 03:28, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Actually, you don't need to cite a script or gameguide for plotline cites. Take a look at Final Fantasy VII or any other Final Fantasy FP (take your pick, there's tons of them!) and you'll see the accepted citation format is simply citing the exact text from the English version of the game.

Took a look at it and did some polishing. My suggestions:

• Lead needs to include reception and language localization to fully summarize the article.
• Use the manual of the game or reviews to reference the gameplay section.
• Include in gameplay a good picture of a standard in-game moment to give the reader a feel for how it is played.
• It is unclear what the "original" language of the game is, although it is most likely that it would be French, given that the game was written and designed by French designers in France." Needs a ref; borders on OR.
• "This is one of the few games available on the market that gives practically no clues as to the native language, as everything is localized, including signs." Also needs a ref, same reason.
• Rename the entire development and sequel plans to a "sequel" or "legacy" section under reception, since that is what it is about.
• Write a development section (interviews with makers during development, marketing, previews, expo appearances, problems, changes etc.). Maybe use the interview in the external links as a start.
• Wikilink publishing dates, and make sure to inlclude them on every reference.
• I'm lead to believe there is a soundtrack that accompanies this video game. Please include a section about it.
• As previously mentioned, reception needs to be expanded. Look here or here for well written ones (preferably the former).

Have fun.--Clyde (talk) 14:10, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
