Ace of Aces (video game)
[edit]... that as of 1987, Ace of Aces was Accolade's second best-selling video game?
5x expanded by Anarchyte (talk). Self-nominated at 09:44, 16 June 2016 (UTC).
- Expanded from 750 to 5400 k so beyond the 5x limit. Is long enough. No copyright violations. Well written. Sources look okay.
- @Anarchyte: The hook is odd - in it's current form it's 29 years out of date, it should be rewritten. At the very least should state that it was the second best-selling game in 1987 not the "as of" a date that far in the past. MPJ-US 02:01, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- @MPJ-DK: How about:
... that the 1986 video game Ace of Aces went on to become one of Accolade's best-selling Commodore 64 games? Anarchyte (work | talk) 06:36, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- @Anarchyte: The source does not support that, it states "in 1987" so another game published in 1988 could have outsold it. MPJ-US 00:06, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- @MPJ-DK: Couldn't it be slightly reworded? ... that the 1986 video game Ace of Aces was one of Accolade's best-selling Commodore 64 games in 1987? Anarchyte (work | talk) 10:12, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Alt1=... that the 1986 video game Ace of Aces was one of Accolade's best-selling Commodore 64 games in 1987?
I am good with the Alt1 above MPJ-US 00:32, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
