  • "Up to six human and computer players form two teams" - why not use artificial intelligence?
  • " Each uses an analog stick and single button to control triangles" - a single button
  • "The third charge level, a "slam", shoots a large triangle" - try The third charge level, known as a "slam", shoots a large triangle?
  • " are "tackled" and projectiles that hit projectiles are "intercepted". [7]" - extra space before citation
  • "but players can practice with computer-controlled teammates and opponents and in Arcade mode, a set of scenarios in which the player faces two computer-controlled opponents" - this seems like a run-on. It might be better to split the sentence at the Arcade mode
  • "Games last an average of four minutes, though they can last several times more" - this isn't mentioned in the source given. I didn't find anything about "four minutes"
  • "He broadcast gameplay from Twitch's booth at PAX East 2014 with indie publisher Midnight City" - Midnight City is a song?
  • "GameSpot's reviewer wrote that Videoball was the 2016 equivalent of Rocket League" - de-link Rocket League here
  • "While the controls are simple, Destructoid noted, the player's intent can easily backfire if they aim or charge the shot sloppily" - the beginning of the sentence feels like it belongs in a quote and doesn't feel right. How about Destructoid noted that the player's intent can easily backfire if they aim or charge the shot sloppily, despite the controls being simple or something similar?
  • "Reviewers noted the game's accessibility" - noted, praised, or criticised?

Good work with this! I couldn't find many issues to raise. On hold JAGUAR  19:10, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, @Jaguar! I think I got everything. "Usually the games are over in about three to five minutes," Rogers said. is the quote from PC Gamer, and I used "noted" since it wasn't explicit praise or criticism, at least universally. Glad to finally put this one to bed. czar 20:04, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, looks good to go! Is this the best game in the universe? JAGUAR  21:23, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
