Quantic Dream[edit]
- Quantic Dream (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
This company has 1 cancelled game, 1 game that sold less than a million units, and some games that as of 2005, may or may not be ever released. Not notable at all. RogueNinjatalk 01:27, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment This was previously tacked onto the bottom of the previous AfD from 2005; I moved it. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 01:33, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep - The games it has published seem to have deserved long articles and it seems notable but it doesn't seem to have much history for an article --Tombomp (talk) 09:46, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- AA7Why would this even be considerd for deletion? This is a sucessful company with two high profile games, one of which that has sold over 800,000 units. Im not sure why you would want to delete this. They also have another high profile game coming out entitled Heavy Rain which will certianly generate alot of atention. If this article is deleted now it will only have to be re-created in a few months when their game begins its marketing campaign. There is no logical reason to delete this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.187.31.81 (talk) 16:16, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak Keep - if the games deserve articles, then the company almost certainly does as well, and sales of 700,000 are non-negligible. But the article needs third-party references per WP:RS. Kalkin (talk) 23:04, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - subject requires reliable, independent coverage: Here's some on the first page of a google search: [1] [2] [3], etc etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Marasmusine (talk • contribs) 09:05, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Per Marasmusine's sources, misc other sources and puzzlement as to why this was nominated. They have two released games, not one, Omikron: The Nomad Soul featured input from David Bowie and received attention as a result of that. Indigo Prophecy won awards and received a lot of attention, what has failing to sell a million copies got to do with notability? Sources = notability and there's a boatload if anyone cares to look. Heavy Rain, should it fail to come to fruition, has received a lot of attention anyway, enough to either maintain a seperate article or be merged to this one.

- Keep - Quantic Dream are still an up and running company. Delete the page for Elvis Pressly instead. He's not done much recently. 62.249.237.223 (talk) 23:15, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
